Hi... i just got back from the pet store an hour ago and the person there said that i should be using ph lowering stuff in my tank. From what ive read on here, modifying the PH only hurts everything doesnt it? I do tests on the PH of the tap water here and its 7.8-8.0 around there and i realize thats really high, should i bring it down with chemicals or just hope the fish can adapt to this high PH? Need help as fast as possible thanks!
Edit:
But if the fish at the lfs have a ph around 7.0 will the fish be able to adapt to my tank at 7.8 that quickly or will the smaller, less hardy ones die off really fast?
