PH hard dive...

[Synapse]

As anyone here had problem regarding their Ph after completing a fishless cycle? I've just completed mine to realise that the darn Ph was too low (<6) to add my fish... Tested hardness - Gh 100ppm, Kh <20ppm.
IS this at all possible?

What can be done, with out getting my hands dirty with all those chemicals?


help greatly appreciated!

What is your tap water ph after it has beening standing for a couple of days with aeration? Plants, C02 injection?

What you can do is get some substrate material like crushed coral or gravel that will raise your kh! This will help to increase ph also! My kh and gh is around 100ppm and ph is 7.6!
