-If your running a calcium reactor, may be lowering your PH -You have low Alk -Aquarium is still new and cycling Some ideas. But we do need more info like reeferaddict said. |

![]() Just my 2 cents.
In my tank when my ph reaches the point where I begin to get concerned (7.9) I add kalk or alkalinity buffer. I think the gradual lowering of ph indicated the consumption of Ca and Alk (carbonate hardness). In other words your buffering capacity is deminishing and its time to suppliment.
