What could possibly make my PH readings shoot up in a couple of days?
The only thing I added was a few plastic plants and a rock decoration.
I have been using PH down for 4 days. The PH seemed to go down the first couple of days to 7.6 and 7.4 in the HR PH. Then I added the plants and rock and a day later the PH is at 8.0.
Other decorarion in the tank include snail shells and fossilised coral. I was told I could add it to my freshwater tank without affecting the PH.
Any thoughts?
Thanks
