I'm hoping I can get some advice here. I started my first planted aquarium a few weeks ago, and all the water parameters are alright.... except the PH.
I'm seeing super high PH, above what I can measure (8.4) and I know it's not from the water I'm using, since I use that in all my non-planted tanks.
Could you help me with what would be the source? Here is what I'm using
- ADA Aqua Soil Amazonia Light
- ADA Brighty K and Green Brighty Mineral fertilizer (very low dose, I have algea problems as well)
- Some stones (I do not know what kind, bought from an aquarium store)
Help - PH really high in my first planted aquarium
