I meant to say, every other day, but daily won't hurt either. ~ jan

The pH is 8.5 - reading taken at 2pm & 6pm. It used to be OK & the tap

If your tap water is 7.0, I'd go the KISS method and just do water change
outs. 10% every day for 4 times and I bet your pH is down to 8.0 a more
plant happy pH. Plus, this won't shock your fish, doesn't cost a lot nor
any hazardous materials training needed. ;o) Then do 10% change outs
weekly.
It would be helpful to know what your total alkalinity (KH test) is of
both
pond and tap water. As you may still need the Baking Soda. ~ jan
