This tank is cycled and I have 3 corey cats in a 20 gallon (long), I have 2 pieces of malaysian driftwood and good filtration.
I have been using RO water in this tank. I checked the PH a week ago and it was 7.0, a week later before my water change it was 7.4. After the water change it dropped back down to 7.0.
Does anybody know what could cause a swing like this? In my experience my aquariums don't swing so drastically, could this have something to do with the RO water? That is the only thing I'm doing differently in this tank. Is it possible she's feeding them too much?
Do nitrates have an effect on PH? Do plant ferts? (seachems)
Thanks!
