I range between 7.9-8.1 right now. To keep my pH up I:

Run a Kalkreactor in addition to my Ca Reactor
Draw my skimmers air from outside the house
Grow macroalgae on reverse lighting
Have a lot of open surface area for gas exchange in my system
Try to keep my Alkalinity in the high range
Use an oversize becket skimmer
Live alone most of the time
Own a lot of house plants
Added DIY second stage to Ca Reactor
