Does Tropic Marin All For Reef depress pH?

[trmiv]

I’ve been reading how All For Reef works here and Randy mentions that O2 is consumed in the process. Would that O2 consumption depress ph any? My tank currently runs on the low side 7.8-8.1 which I maintain with a fresh air line to my skimmer (7.5-7.8 without that). I’d like to start using All For Reef, but I don’t want my ph depressed anymore that it is currently.

The effect should be quite small. Smaller than normal organic carbon dosing.

Thanks Randy, going to give it a try then!

I've been using AFR for about six months now with no detectable change in my PH. All changes have been positive with the exception of having to scrape the faster growing coralline algae off of the front glass a bit more often...

You can also add me to the list of makes next to no difference in PH. You'll love AFR. I just picked up a second large bottle.
