Does anyone use RO water for there tanks? What do you use to bring your kH back up without causing your pH to sky rocket?
I have equilibrium as well as acid and alkaline buffer and been trying to find a good balance to be consistent with. I'm just wanting to keep a nutural pH with kH of around 4-6dkh or about 80-100ppm. But when I tested my tank last night, my alkalinity and gH was good but my pH was almost 8.5!
Any ideas how to correct this? I also have 4 large pieces of driftwood in the tank.
I was hoping to buy fish and plants for this tank this week but don't know if I should with the pH being so off right now.
