Hello,
I have a problem with my PH in my City it is very low....
Q1 - Can the PH be lower then the test kit goes and therefore give wrong results... Like the lowest the test goes it 6.0 (Pale Green) now the test solution itself if pale green, could my Ph in fact be 5 or lower and the test just cant show it?
Q2 - Can I add a rock of Limestone to my freshwater tank to raise it to mid 6 - low 7
Any fish I add within 1 day gets white edges to the fins and and then a white bump on the eyes/cloud, remain very inactive, however all test are fine other then low PH
Could this be the problem? Buffereing/PH is too low?
