Long story short..I had some rocks my cherry shrimp Tank 4.5g my ph was high at 8! I never really tested anything till this week when my first shrimp died. So I tried to figure out why my ph was so high and turns out these rocks (slate with fossils in it) failed the vinegar test (I had used these rocks for years in larger tanks with no issues) so I removed these rocks and now I want to lower the ph.
Will a coconut shell have much affect? The tank is too small for any of the driftwood available at the LFS.
