thanks you guys, I feel like such an Idiot being new here, cause my LFS wrongly told me that aragamilk buffers ph, when it is in fact for calcium. I'm glad I can get advice on here. I wont be dosing aragamilk as I'm sure with my good mix of salt, and the amount of dosing I had been doing that my calcium is probably quite high, which would explain why I havent seen my ph go above 7.9-8 I'm a little concerned on the ph topic as I would like to get it up to 8.1-8.2 and keep it there, will it go up on its own? or will I need something for this? I'd rather not add anything more to the tank(dosing/chemicals) as I dont want to for lack of a better term "****" anything up (pardon my french.) I have had a tough time trying to keep things stable in terms of ph and salinity, but have found out the trick to the salinity, now I just need to figure out the ph aspect. anyone have anytips in this regard? again
