How to increase pH in aquarium?
Hello,
I have an aquarium that is currently in the running-in phase.
That's why I test the water daily and noticed that my pH level is very low.
Do you have any tips on how I can increase my pH level?

Hello, I just bought an aquarium. It's been full of fish for about a week now. While I was cleaning it today, I noticed a slightly chemical smell. There are also small bubbles on the water's surface… I'm a little worried that this is causing problems for the fish. LG
Hey. I got some fish two weeks ago and have a question about my four catfish…. They hardly move… sure, sometimes they are active and suck on the ground but mostly they lie on the ground (sometimes for 1-2 hours). Is that normal? Photo: The Platys, on the other hand, swim happily around
So I would like to breed red neons, guppies, shrimp and catfish.
Hello, I've had a Redsea 160s for my Redsea Reefer 250 for some time now. Unfortunately, I have no idea how to adjust this light perfectly. Sometimes the corals like it, sometimes they don't. Can someone help me? The tank mainly contains Euphis in the upper areas. Then there are soft corals in the middle…
Hello, I have a 200-liter tank. There are 15 blood tetras, 3 antenna catfish, 3 spiny-eyes, and 10 armored catfish swimming in it. Can you recommend another eye-catcher? I'm open to anything… tetras, perches, livebearers… Blood tetras are relatively agile and also like to nibble on other fish. Perhaps someone has a good idea. I…
Hey, I'm 14 and have been fishing with my dad a lot lately. Today I bought some spinning equipment and wanted to try fishing for predatory fish, like perch, pike, etc. But my dad said he wasn't sure if I was even allowed to fish for predatory fish on my own. By the way, I…
Hello,
What do you think? Line water has a pH which is slightly alkaline, i.e. 7,4-7,8, which is buffered by the provider in such a way, because acidic water would decompose the lines!
Thank you for your answer!
Of course I take quite normal tap water, but our water is quite soft and according to the test sticks, I have a PH value of 6.4
I assume that
the Pudels core is why this is so, I have already written in the answer!
Soft, so lower GH does not necessarily have something to do with the pH!
Hello
I would recommend another approach.
Just find out why the pH is low.
This is rare and if you understand why this is the case you can expect.
There are mainly 3 causes
Thank you for your answer!
I don’t have a Co2 plant.
As far as I know, we have quite soft water.
My PH value is 6.4 according to test.
Is it JBL per scan?
No soil, allegedly the tap water is already mad!
Measurement errors
Okay.
I just looked on the internet for my water values and the PH value is actually at 8 instead of 6.5.
Thank you for your help.
JBL’s multiple tests often show too low a pH. What does the test say and what does your water provider say about water hardness?
Water values from the waterworks can be found when you enter “Trinkwasseranalyse Ortendorfxyz”
It’s JBL Pro Aquatest Easy
Yeah, I guess so.

Only the ridge, for example, of lowering PH…
Oh, that’s where I read, right
