Shouldn't the PH be around 7.0 when you add the buffer? pH # doesn't matter, if the buffer is needed, add it. Only time one needs to be careful is if ammonia is present. Then Amquel or similar ammonia detox should be added first. Buffer is a must to keep pH stable. If you have enough in your natural water source, water changes will take care of it if done often enough. Bio-action is what uses it up. If there is not enough buffering in your water source, then you'll need to add something. I use Baking Soda when needed, but there are other sources. Hopefully those who use other sources will chime in. :-) ~ jan ------------ Zone 7a, SE Washington State Ponds: www.jjspond.us |
