After roughly 6 hours, PH just tested at 6.4. I'll test again first thing tomorrow morning.

Ok- its a bit of trial & error here to figure out the correct amount. We dont want to raise your ph but keep it stable at your taps ph. I would reduce the amount of cr coral in filter & do a small water change (20-25%) each day over the next few days until your ph sits steady around your taps ph (6.5-7 range).
Hmm... thats a tough one. How do the rest of your numbers look? If all is well, lets try a 25% wc right now & remove just a smidge of coral. Test your ph in few hrs & see if theres any change. Then do another 25%wc & test again later. Where ever your ph is at this evening, just leave things be & you can deal with it when you return. Enjoy your vacation!!
Yep, your fine to do them a few hrs apart! I would also double check the ph in the am before you leave just to see where its at. I would rather have it sit stable at a higher number then risk having it crash while your away. Thats great your amm & nitrite are zero again!
