one more point. Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) will lower your ph but should only for a few minutes to let's say Max an hour.

I use Baking Soda only, to make up for any deficinceys in my alk level and if I have my ph monitor on and I add 1 tbls to my system (total watervolume of about 150g). I can watch my ph drop rapidly to about 7.9 from 8.2. This last for maybe 2 to 3 minutes at most and then the ph is back to it's original 8.2.

cheers
