Hey Everybody --
I need some help. The water supply in Tulsa has a pH > 7.6 My aquariums are showing pH that is off the chart. One tank is thriving with Crypts and Java ferns. I can't get plants to survive in the other tank. I'd like to bring the pH of the ailing tank down to the 6.8-7.0 range, but I can't seem to find a way to keep it there. I'm way "old-school" using white distilled vinegar to reduce the pH. I can get it down, but it doesn't stay down. Can anybody help? Thanks
