I started tracking my PH quite a few months ago and noticed quite a swing (8.4-7.8) and started to freak out and wonder why and how I could fix it. But then I did some reading and the real question is:
How does your tank look? Is everything healthy?
I don't worry about it anymore. Everything seems fine.
