Hi so i am on day 6 of tank cycling and I have Nitrites and nitrates present and my ammonia levels are starting to drop but my ph just keeps rising and rising and I have heard that sieryu stone can cause that along with substrate so i do have that stone in my tank and i have the eco complete planted substrate Ive heard that the levels dont have to be exact as long as their stable but mine arent so is there anythhing I can do to help with this? or evena key reason? feel free to pm me if theres some sort of image of my tank you need or anything thankyou!

Once you get the tank cycled, you will be able to manage the KH increase via water changes with RO or distilled water. The stone is TL/DR raising your KH which in turn raises pH. After some time you will get a feel for the amount of water changes needed to maintain stability.
