Hello again.
I'm using Equilibrium to buffer my rodi water. I have a 29 gallon tank just for buffering, but it only 25 true gallons. The 29 gallon tank has 2 powerheads, marineland 30gallon fillter, and 30 gallon heater.
If I put it 25 gallons, and following the directions. It says 1 tablespoon for 20 gallons, so i'm using 4 teaspoons to catch the last 5 gallons.
Not sure if my api ph test is wrong, but it always reads 7.6+ for ph. Am I useing to much buffer or am I reading the ph of the actuall test kit??? I've been told to try to buffer between 6 and 9 drops of api gh test. I'm currently getting 6ish.
I also bought some seachem neutral regulator, says it adjust water to ph of 7.0, Havn't used it yet, should I??
I've been having a real hard time getting any useful info on this rodi water buffering. Seems like alot of people don't use it for freshwater
