I have fish only and keep mine at 8.2 so I'd bring mine up if I was you

Thanks for you help jhil .. What would you recommend to bring it up ?

Ideal range is 8.2-8.3ish. There are buffers you can use to bring it up. My LFS suggested this to me:

Seachem Saltwater

Its the marine buffer

Thanks Henry, I will try buffer..

 

[Henry405]

having good water aeration also helps maintain a good pH level

A ph buffer should be fine as long as you make sure you mix it well before you add it to your tank

oyeah, I forgot to mention that xD. Mix it with freshwater, its easier to dissolve in FW compared to SW
