my tank really rises in pH during "Lights ON" time..
going to try to bypass at night and see if that makes much difference..

I would think running the scrubber at night and bypassing during the day would be the way to go. pH rises when running the scrubber, so running at night would counter act the usual drop in pH that happens.

Curious what skimmer you're running. I'm about to start scrubbing and wonder how long the media will last.

running it during the day does help out a lot in raising the pH...
Like I said my tank is really stubborn whne it comes top the pH... I've peaked at the low 8.20's lately..
