High all! (har har)
I set up a new planted tank and I am trying to cycle it. 10.5 gal with water wisteria, dwarf sag, and glossostigma e. planted in it. I tested my tap water, and it was 7.4 right out of the tap, so shouldn't be shocked that it is high in this tank after only 3 days, right?
Anyway, I was wondering if there are any ways I can naturally lower it to neutral without buffering chemicals. I want to promote balance rather than constantly battle it. Any ideas? Should I even worry about it? No fish yet, but I have some guppies that are ready when I am.
