HELP! NastayNatron's tank

[Cal_stir]

if you have a 120 gal tank, you will need to add about 20 tsp of vinegar to lower the PH by 0.3, keep adding the vinegar until you have added 20 tsp then see what the PH is.
is the water still cloudy?

OK, I've added 7 tsp now - the pH is at 8.71.

How long should I wait between teaspoons?

The water is less cloudy, but still more cloudy than usual (probably because it hasn't had a water change in a week).

if you are adding it to a high flow area in the sump I would wait about 10 seconds, if adding to the tank wait 30sec

do you have a salinity meter? ifso, check the tanks salinity

[Cal_stir]

i'm in ontario so i'm getting ready for bed. lower the ph slowly, 0.3 at a time then wait an hour before lowering more, try to get it to 8.3, google water change on a marine tank, there will be lots of videos, a 20% water change would be very helpful. good luck

is there nobody in the calgary area that can run over and help out with a water change?

I wish I was there to help you man.

Jeez, where in Calgary are you? Maybe one of your fellow calgarians can come over and assess the situation.
