my qt has been at 7.8 for a long time now.i have been adding buffer for three weeks.every other day .still at 7.8
jeez how much of this stuff do i need to add?i am using kent superbuffer now.
just seems like alot of buffer to me.all the water tests are zero the fish are fine but i cannot seem to get the ph up.
they are in for lympho and i figure if i can get the ph up they would recover that much faster.i do have 3 ph's in the tank two small and a korilia #3 so water is moving good.
is this normal?

have you checked your dk level. I dont go by ph anymore. I have never had to use ph buffer just stay on top of your water changes and the dk level will fix itself. everything you need is in the rocks and the salt. good luck
