Can anyone tell me how to lower the  PH in my tank, without useing peat or  making my water brown?   I am trying to breed some Scarlet Badis (Dario Dario),in a planted tank. I have an R O systems in my house(I live in Florida with well water, so you don't drink the water).The water is good for the first few hours but then it goes up, mine to about 8.0 or higher. I have tried the tablets and the drops - no change- I don't want to put to much in and kill the fish, so I'm looking for HELP.  ANYBODY........Paul

it could be your substrate if your using crushed coral or even old substrate from a higher pH tank....or beach sand even having a few shells will mess with you pH
