Hello all,
I love this forum, but I don't have a reason to post very often. However, my roommate recently bought an electronic pH meter so he can run CO2 injection, and just for fun I checked the pH of my tank. It was at 8.1. This seems pretty high to me, but all of my fish (neons, plecos, gouramis, swords, corys, etc.) seem to be doing just fine. I know the best indicator of water quality is fish and plants, and they all seem to be ok. So, should I be worried about it? I have some pH down formula that was given to me, but I don't like to use chemicals if I don't have to.
Thanks!
Ryan
