Anyone know exactly how to use (Arm & Hammer) baking soda for pH control in a 50 Gallon freshwater tropical fish aquarium. My pH now is 7.7. This I believe is a bit high! Any sound suggestion?
Before you make any changes, is the ph stable? As long as it isn't fluctuating, there's really no need to change it, having a stable ph is the most important thing imo. What do u have in there?
I have 6 mollies and 5 tetras with 2 java ferns and 2 anubias nanas. Nitrates and nitrites, as well as ammonia are good. The pH is a constant 7.7, which I thought was on the high side. I have read it should be neutral at 7. Fish and plants are all doing well!
