Hello! I'm having a problem with the PH of my planted tank. It's really high (around 8.0) and I don't think my plants like it too much. One of my plants is changing color.
I have tested the GH and KH and the results are (I used the Nutrafin test kit):
GH - 140
KH - 80 mg/L (which is good)
I don't really want to add any chemicals to lower the PH or to lower the GH. I was thinking about adding some peat to my filter. Is peat a good idea? Also would it lower the KH?
