I used to have a piece of driftwood in my tank, but I took it out because the pH of the water dropped way too much, so much so that every fish I try to acclimate to the tank ends up dying. So far, I have done several water changes and added about a cup of aquarium salt, but to no avail.
Right now the pH is about 6.0, and the fish stores where I live keep their pH around 6.8. I need to raise the pH sufficiently so I can keep fish without shocking them. What do I do now?
