It seems Eco-Balance caused my tank pH to drop. Is this expected/normal? I dosed eco-balance yesterday as shown on the graph below, and since then, my pH has been dropping down. No upswing as usual when the main tank is illuminated. No other changes to my tank. Is this a result of bacteria consumption/respiration/death?

Possibly. They’re multiplying, so... I dose it almost weekly
