i have 2 questions regarding pH & cycling.
1) can a tank cycle at a LOW pH
lets say 6.0
2) does the pH have to be STABLE?
if so, how do i 'permanently' buffer the pH??
the reason i ask is because.
the pH from my tap water is 7.6
but in 1day it falls to 6.0
now i don't know what my GH or KH or watever values are..
but OBVIOUSLY they must be LOW, cuz my carbonates are being used up very quickly.
