I GOT A PROBLEM WITH MY PH I HOPE SOMEONE CAN GIVE ME SOME ADVICE.
I GOT A 55 GAL WITH A 400 EMPEROR AND A HANGON PRIZM SKIMMER, MY PROBLEM IS I CANT GET MY PH TO GO UP I TRIED USING KALK SOL AND THAT DOES NOTHING BUT RAISE MY CALSIUM LEVEL WHICH IS ABOUT 500 ANYWAYS SO I REALLY DONT WANT TO USE THAT TO MUCH MORE. I ASKED LOCAL FISH STORE AND HE SAID NOT TO USE THE PH UPPER SOLUTION THATS THEY HAVE HE SAID IT WAS LIKE ADDING ACID TO TANK. BUT I WAS WONDERING IF I COULD USE THAT JUST USING LITTLE AMOUNTS AT A TIME. IF ANYONE CAN HELP IT WILL BE VERY WELL NEEDED
:help:

i think that stability is more important than level. a steady 8.0 will not harm anything, but a swing from 8.3 to like, 7.8 might.
