Hey everyone,


I have 3 tanks all three are planted no co2. I am an avid player inregards to water changes and such. I basically do my changes using a 5 gallon wate bucket. I have well water with specs like these:
ph 6.2 or less-Total Alkalinity low range--Total hardness is soft I know the rules Ph change is harmfull to fish. I started using Seachems buffers (Alkalin- acid). According the direction on back of bottles its states. Use 7 g ( 1 level Teaspoon) for every 10 gallons. First I have a very accurae pro scale 222. 7 grams isn't l level teaspoon. I level teaspoon is 5.5 grams. Is this accurate. I would like to bring my ph up to a slightly acidic range of 6.8-7.0. If using a 5 gallon jugs this is what I come up with. 1/2 teaspoon of Alkaline buffer to 1/2 gram (.5) of acid buffer. The back of the acid bottle it states use 2 g (1/4 teaspoon) for every 20 gallons half of 1/4 of 20 is 5 gallons thus .5 grams of acid. Is this accurate. I a side note Api test kit vials it states fill to line 5 ml. If I take an accurate medicine droper fill the dropper 5ml and fill the vial it will go above the 5 ml line.

Well anyway who knows

Thanks for the confusin.
