So as some of you may know, I'm getting very close to rescaping my 6.6g into a nano tank. My API master test kit arrived today (yes ive waited this long ). And tested the ph of the water of both the 6.6 as it is now (still hasnt been drained, but there are hundreds of ramshorns), and my dirted bowl, and am unhappy with the results. For the the 6.6 the Ph was about 8.0-8.2 and the bowl was about 7.8. The new 6.6 will be dirted (its currently just gravel) so Im hoping that the dirt will bring it down a few, but for the fish I want to get I think im going to have to lower it even more. I will be stocking with scarlet badis, red rosy loaches, and either Green Kubotai Rasbora or chili rasboras; along with a neocandria(sp?) sp.
What can I do to lower the Ph, so far it seems like my best choice is to see if I can get some Indian Almond Leaves and/or peat moss from my LFS, as I don't have the money or need for an RO unit, as Im in high school. Thanks for the Help
