Hi everyone, I'm thinking of lowering the pH in my CRS/green shrimp tank from current level of 7.2 to 6.5-6.8. What is the safest and easiest way to do so?
Here's the set up:
20 Gal planted with FloraBase (1")
HOB Filter + XP2 (just hooked up last night) with reduced flow.
DIY CO2
Light on time: 8 hrs / day
Temp: 73 degree F
pH: 7.2
Oh n I always have a piece of almond leaf in the tank. I'm using FloraBase as substrate and not feel like changing it over to ADA unless I set up another tank! I've heard of peat moss... has anyone used that? Where to get it n how much do I need?
Any other suggestion?
