I have actually posted threads like this a while back that got really long and had a lot of good information in it, but unfortunately whatever I am trying isn't working. Summary: Try to setup a Malawi tank and want my gH and kH higher along with my pH. My pH is currently around 8.0 but the highest I can get my gH and kH is about 6 and I at least want the kH higher for water changes. Like I said in my sig I have crushed coral on the bottom floor, a 44lb limestone rock and crushed coral running through the filters. Should I try replacing the crushed coral with this African Cichlid mix?

Was also thinking of a last resort, of using African Cichlid buffer, but not sure how much of a pain it will be during water changes since I like to use my python to fill the tank. Would also like to know what values it buffers to if anyone knows:

Thanks for any help.
