To maintain the existing alk and increase the buffering capacity of the tank you can add a mixed ratio of washing to baking soda solution to achieve a neutral solution (8.1-8.3). Does anyone know what the ratio is?
Baking soda doesn't lower alk it lowers ph. Do a search on Randy's forum on RC the info is there somewhere
