My PH typically ranges from 7.95 at night to 8.15/8.2 during the day. I usually dose KENT buffer to raise PH and ALK about once every 1 1/2-2weeks.....for the last month i am struggling to keep PH above 8.0 even during the day and at night I am dipping to 7.8 now which scares me!!!....i run lights on refugium opposite DT schedule and I am running biopellets but that is nothing new (i know that causes drop in PH initially).....i run an open top tank and i am agressively skimming and stirring the surface with koralia as per usual....i know that people have similar issues during winter but I have been dosing almost every 2nd or 3rd day now and even that doesnt sustain the PH above 8.1....and within hours it drops back down to the range mentioned above and as soon as the next night i seem to be tetering on verge of TOO LOW....i can understand why with a closed up house in the winter with pellets running that i might have to dose more often but why is the dose even helping???????....i use a pinpoint PH monitor which i calibrated a few weeks ago. any words of wisdom....anyone else have same levels? anyone think i am flirting woth danger of either dosing too much or at risk of losing livestock with these levels???
