PH question

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Check the carbonate hardness of your water. With pH swings like that, it must be soft. I have pH swings in my tank as well if I get lazy with water changes.
Maybe do a series of water changes to get your pH stable, then add a small amount of crushed coral and measure. Keep adding small amounts of crushed coral until the pH is stable. I wouldn't add a lot at once.
 
Yes..tap water is soft..I just did water changes in both tank (1300l) , (2200l) and add about 10kg to each sump (400l) crushed coral size 10-30mm.. thanks to u all and I let u now how things change..
 
Falling PH can be a sign of old tank syndrom. As other people mentioned, crushed coral will stabilize PH. I had the same issue with my ph dropping below 6, and water changes stressed out my Rays. Adding CC helped
