Aquarium Advice Apprentice
Can someone explain to me the relationship between pH, Ca, and alkalinity? I'm using Reef Buffer by Seachem on my 32 gal reef. I can't get the pH to stay at 8.3. Corals will do best in a pH of 8.25 to 8.3, right? I can get it there one evening and the next evening, it's back to 8.0. I'm using RO water purchased from a LFS. I've been told that may be part of the problem because it's "stripped". I call it "clean". Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
