What is the PH of your tap water
(after you let it sit several hours?) Compare that PH reading to
your
tank
PH and you should see a difference.

I use RO/DI water and the pH of that is pretty low. The test kit
reads
6.0
but I have a hard time beleiving it.
I guess all I can really go on is KH which that test kit is at work.
I'll
have to get another one...

Mort,
Your tank PH *should* be lower than your RO reading if your CO2
injection
is
working properly... UNLESS you have something in the tank that is
raising
your KH.

I just finished testing the water.
KH is at 0 (is that good) pH is lower than 6.0 (so it would seem) as the
sample turned a dark yellow. I decided to test my GH while I was at it
and
that turned out to be 3-4.
I havent had time to check out Chucks chart but I will do that ASAP.

I decided to stay up past my bed time and check it out. There was some
discus buffer and Neutral regulator added before I did the CO2 so I can not
tell at this point what my CO2 level is. I need to start changing some
water... =)
