Ph
so my PH probe is now saying that my Ph is suddenly 8.8. and im pretty sure thats bad but i dont know what caused it because i did 3 different things that could affect it at once lol. first i was messing with my aquacontroller and i accidently reset it i dont know if that would un calibrate it or something . But as soon as it started back up it said the PH was 8.6 then started to climb over the next few days. but in this month i also changed salt brands and started dosing C-balance do you think those could of affected my PH that much or do i jsut have to recalibrate my probe? and what happens if your PH is this high?

You need to establish if the probe is reading correctly or not. Yes, 8.8 would be unusually high. My guess...you need to calibrate the probe.

because after the reset, all settings return to the original manufacture settings. Last edited by tank; 11-18-2008 at 08:28 PM.
