I just got back from a week and a half vacation and the Ph in my 55 gallon was so low. my 29 was perfect.

Here are some questions(see sig for stocking info):


Do plants halp stabilize ph? I ask because my 29 is planted and the 55 is not.


Could the fact that my parrots were digging a lot while i was gone have pushed enough junk into the water to cause the spike?

Could the one tiny panda cory that died while i was gone caused it, or do you think he died as a result of the spike?

I didn't even look at the chart because the test water was bright yellow and i knew i was in deep doo doo.
