Currently using pressurized CO2 with PH controller and carbon doser regulator. ( it measures bubbles per second and additional valve to change bubble size)
KH-6
PH controller set to 6.8
.5 per bubble and 8psi bubble size
Assuming my PH controller is calibrated (which it is), KH is stable, no excessive water movement to off-gas then my PH should be a stable 6.8.
I wake up this morning and my CO2 and my PH controller reads 7.0 and my CO2 unit is playing catch up and working overtime.
I understand minor fluctuations will occur but the purpose of the controller if properly set should keep the PH at 6.8.
What could be happening?
