PH dropping


Recommended Posts

It is normal for pH to drop during night time as the carbon dioxide produced from respiration reacts with water to form carbonic acid.

It will usually return back to normal during the day but if you want to keep it stable, grow macroalgae under reverse photoperiod which means to turn the refugium lights on during the night.

Hope that helps :lol:

That would work too but if you drip it everyday, you might overdose it so be extra careful when dosing kalkwasser to keep pH high B)

Do note, its ideal to have it at 8.3 but not a must.

Most reefers hav it in the range of 7.9 to 8.2 thruout the day.

Btw, wat did u use to test ur pH? test kits or electronics?
