The PH of my tank is running at 7.8-7.9.
I’m thinking on running a line from outside the house to the air intake of my skimmer to pull fresh air into my tank and reduce CO2, therefore increase the PH.
Has anybody had done this?? What is your experience in testing to increase the PH??

I've seen about a 0.2 increase in pH with outside air line to my skimmer. Pretty much stays in the 8.2-8.4 range all the time now.
