Aquarium Advice FINatic
I've been trying to find info on whats been happening to my tank, but haven't really found any definitive answers.
I have CO2 running for about a week now, and I tested my water today and my KH is 0. My PH is 6.8 and has stayed at that level since I started CO2. The last time I checked my KH was maybe 3-4 days ago and it was 40ppm. Out of my tap my PH is normally 8.0, KH 40, GH 150. Right now my reading are:
PH: 6.8
KH: 0
GH: 300
Nitrites:0
Nitrates: 20
So should I add something to buffer the KH up? How do I figure out what my CO2 level is if my KH is zip and I have to artificiallly raise it?
