Ph etc.
Today's tests include Ca, 492, Alk 8.0, temp 77°F and SG 1.024. Yet my pH is still cycling below 8.0. I haven't tested water by putting it outside to see it the CO2 in the house is a factor, but is there anything Eski I can do to raise it to 8.3?

What is the pH? You didn't list it with your other numbers. If it is 7.7 or better don't do anything, you're in the good.

Well, it's close.....
My goal is to add more SPS to the tank, and Live Aquaria lists the range for these as 8.1-8.3 ImageUploadedByTapatalkHD1420698129.636230.jpg |

pH isn't critical as long as it isn't excessively low or high. Mine has been running 7.77 -8.1 since windows have been closed and I have no issues with sps. I wouldn't really sweat it if the rest of your parameters are in line.

Dont chase pH in a reef tank. Chase Alk!
