Note that phosphates will through off you CO2 calculations. Are you using
any additives at all that contain phospates?

I believe it is accurate I am using an Aquarium Pharmaceuticals test kit

If the measurements are right, your CO2 level is around 57 ppm. I'm
surprised your fish aren't showing signs of distress. Are you fairly
positive your KH test is reliable?

tank.
Any
suggestions?
