I recently setup my first pressurised co2 system and I’m testing my PH throughout the day. Co2 turns on at 9AM then the lights an hour later both are on for 8hours.
I tested my degassed PH which was 7.6 then again at 10 once the co2 had been on for an hour and the photoperiod was about to start. I was hoping for a drop of 1 in the PH which seems standard from what I’ve researched but my API test kit was reading 6 which is the lowest so I’m not really sure what it is. Out of curiosity I used the high range kit too but that was reading the max of 8.8 I’m very confused and any help would be greatly appreciated.
Co2 is running at slightly less than 1 bubble per second. The tank is a 60L with a sicce eko space 200 filter on it.
Drop checker has also been green the whole time.
