Should I use a CO2 scrubber or refugium to increase the pH in my 20 gallon aquarium?
Current pH 7.7-7.8 The window in the aquarium room is open 12 hours a day.
my growth is too slow target ph 8.1-8.3
i am using tunze 9001

How are you measuring ph? That is probably the reason for you thinking your ph is low.

if you have your window open and water surface movement I would be surprised if your ph was as low as 7.7.

Ph'ı nasıl ölçüyorsun? Muhtemelen ph'ınızın düşük olduğunu düşünmenizin nedeni budur.

pencereniz açıksa ve su yüzeyi hareketiniz varsa ph'ınız 7,7 kadar düşük olsaydı şaşırırdım
I had an icp done last week and it came out 7.8. When I test with salifert, I get about the same result.

as I understand it, ph will be different in different environments, the room co2 plays a huge part, also surface water movement, put water in a test tube and shipping it across the country will not give you an accurate ph reading.
