Now that I've got an Apex controller I've been getting to thinking of control.
What if based on the highs and lows of ph measured in a day could we calculate a ball park figure of how much sodium bicarbonate to add.
My reasoning is if Co2 is constantly scrubbed out to maintain a ph of 8.2, then technically a ph drop would indicate the need to raise alkalinity, especially the bicarbonate part.
I also am curious if I closed the lid on my tank and sump, and pumped fresh outide air into the tank 24/7 (to maintain a stable ph), could this work?
Could this be done?
