I need a cheap buffer as my buffering capacity out of the tap is 0. Can I use baking soda? Or crushed coral? I need help.
 
yes, and yes

With the baking soda however you are going to have to do tests before you do anything.
 
Thanks for the info. Is all baking soda safe? Are there companies that use additives?
 
Thanks, I will look at it.
 
Howdy,

Make sure to dissolve it first before you add the solution to your tank. Furthermore, check the pH before you add that solution to your tank and adjust it accordingly.

Good luck,
