I just set up a new 8 gallon aquarium two weeks ago and tested all my water levels.
The only level that seemed out of the ordinary was pH at 8.2
I have been reading that most fish can survive in a wide range of pH levels, but this seems too high to me.
Would it be advisable to use a pHdown product or should I just wait and let the tank level itself out?
I have also heard that you can add a seashell to the tank to help level out the pH level. Is this true???
I would appreciate any input about this topic.
Thanks!
