Hi all,
So in about three weeks I will be adding a betta to my 5.5 gallon tank but right now my pH is well below 6.0 and I don't know what to do. I tested my tap water and it immediately reads 6.8 - 7.0 but if I let it sit for a day or so it drops.
I'm not sure what I can do to raise it because I really don't want to be doing water changes just to keep the pH up if everything else is fine. Any advice on how to keep it at a safe range for my betta without pouring chemicals in?
