I've been reading alot on the forum about Ph and the overall idea I get is not to worry too much about your PH as long as it's not swinging. I have to be honest that care of my tank has taken a back seat the last few months with moving and having a baby, but I've been gradually cleaning it up and would like to add more inhabitants to it. When I had my water checked before the move, the ph was always 7.2 ish. Now it is 7.8. I tried to add some mystery snails and they were dead within 24 hours. I've added some bog wood as I know that can help to lower PH a bit.
The tank is 47 gal, gravel, not crushed rock or coral, kept around 78 degrees. Tetras and dwarf neon rainbow fish. Water is on the hard side.
Should I worry, and how do I add new tankmates with out them dying??
Thanks!!
