Hi all. I had a viewer write in and ask me about the ideal PH range and how he could go about raising it... my video turned into. Bit of a brain dump but there should be lots of useful for understanding what Ph is and a number of suggestions of how you can raise it up. Enjoy

 
Nice. :)

Just a couple of technical corrections:
0:31 pH is a measure of hydrogen ions (H+) and hydroxide ions (OH-)
1:54 more aeration can raise OR lower pH, depending on whether the tank is deficient in CO2 or has an excess, relative to the air being used

0:31 - I missed the N on hydrogen.. Lesson learned.. no more late night video shoots. Ill see if i can find a way to edit it on there.

As for 1:54 - Thats a very good point that i did not consider. Thank you for pointing that out and ill add notes on it to the description.!

Thank you very much for taking the time to provide feed back/ corrections!

Check the spoken words too. They weren't quite right. There are no hydroxyl ions involved, for example. :)
 
Yessss I know. I cut my self off from making videos in the wee hours of the night. :|
