I got 25 gallon planted tropical community tank with DIY co2 setup. My problem are ph swings. Everything was OK as long as I used hard tap water, but since switching to RO water I noticed ph dropping to 6.6 from 7.4. I am using Natural Regulator and R/O right to treat water.
I heard people mix RO water with regular tap water. I did that for first few weeks/PWC, but not I am using just RO water with R/O right to keep kh at around 7.
BTW, co2 is always disconnected for night.
