You need to calibrate that pH probe before you do anything based upon what it says.

In addition, I think your plan to move your pH upward is dangerous. The additive you are looking at will alter your Ca/Alk balance by raising Alk. That is something that can cause a lot more problems than low pH.

Given you aren't running your Ca reactor yet, I suspect that you don't have a seriously low pH problem anyway.
