my ph is droping from co2 insertion. how am i suppose to lvl it out? so far its about 6.6 :(


my plants dont seem to be growing either
i have:
-flourish tabs
-DIY co2 with Redsea500 reactor
-2 lights (75G florescent sunglow, and a small 10G florescent white)
i think the 75g light is 65watt and the 10g is 30
 
CO2 at 30ppm will generally drop the Ph by 1 point. Nothing to worry about. There is far too much worry in fishkeeping on small Ph changes which then lead the worrier onto trying to alter it back. It is the 'realtering' that kills the fish because it is very hard to keep it well.
