OK i cant beliee i am forgetting this stuff but what are the things that highten pH!

I know driftwood and dolomite and coral sand but i forget if the lower highten it?

driftwood-higher?

Coral sand-higher

-dolomite-higher?
 
Driftwood-lower (for sure)
Coral-higher (I think)
 
Yep DriftWood sure does lower... i added like 5 peace to one of my tank and it dropped alot
 
driftwood - lowers pH (tannins)

coral - buffers pH up (carbonates)

dolomite - calcium magnesium carbonate, although it contains carbonates, is mostly insoluble in water (and dilute acid) so should not alter pH much. Some dolomite however may be mixed with limestones and therefore would buffer pH up.
