Air purifier raising PH?

[Fakegolfnews]

I have an air purifier ive been running at night by my tank and my tank has never looked better. I left it on for 48 hrs and the tank looks even better. Is it possible this is raising my PH?

Air purifiers only clean the air right? Didn't think they converted co2

Maybe it is putting out placebo waves What kind of air purifier, what is it supposed to do?

Oxygenate the air more. It works, i can feel it when i come in from outside, especially when im out of breath from working out. It does something with charging ions too. Not really sure haha

Here is the model

No idea if it adds more oxygen directly. But removing crap does raise the oxygen %

Did a little more reading on it, its a UV sterilizer as well haha should i try putting it in my sump? Like in the water i mean... lol

If it take away CO2 (however I doubt that) - it will help to rise your pH

Maybe rather than raising the ph, it is taking stuff out of the air that was irritating the reef. Hair spray, scented candles, solvent fumes and such.

Have you actually measured ph?

Thats a good point, i vape... ALOT haha. Ive never seen any bad effects but then again ive been vaping the whole time haha. No i don't test PH, dont see a need if im not going to do anything to change it. Just wondering if this could be effecting it

Vaping is one of the things I would no do in the same room as my aquarium. Can you smell it - it is a gas - if it is a gas it will end up in one or another way in the aquarium water.

Love your tank!

Thanks a lot

I think its technically water vapor but yes Id agree with you that it cant be good for it. However, many reefers with very nice acro tanks vape around their tank all the time. Ill try only vaping in the room when the purifier is on and see if results are even better.

Yes it is water vapor but at least here in Sweden it is popular to seasoning the vape. And that can be - IMO - dangerous because if it is in the air - it will easily be transported by the skimmer into the water. Its the same with scented candles - IMO and different types of air freshener.
