PH is increasing day by day ..

[nfa]

Am seeing my PH is creeping slowly higher and higher ..

I dose bionic 2 part and my alk is around 8- 8.2 dkh..

Tank is aerated with skimmer ..

Am I reaching alarming zone ?
What are the safe ways to lower PH ?

Have you calibrated your pH probe recently? My readings tend to creep up as the probe is losing calibration.

I hooked my apex 3 days back and calibrated it

+1 on Calibration. What is your dosing schedule like? Do you have to dose daily to keep it at the Alk steady?

Yea I dose 6ml ( 3times a day) both part ..

As long as it levels out, I'm not sure I would worry about 8.5 or so. Good info at:
