I have a 32 gallon Biocube and have been fighting to keep my pH up. Any suggestions on how I can raise and maintain a higher ph
 
I haven’t checked my pH in like a year, does anything seem off in your tank? if not, I personally wouldn’t worry about pH unless your numbers are way off, what is your pH at?

What pH do you measure?

Skimmer, Outside Air Through Skimmer, Great water movement, lighted refuge with macro algae.

Then never pay attention to PH again.
My tank is about 4 month old and I did have Cheeto but I it kept dying and was clogging the spring between chambers I have a 32 gallon biocube
 
I’d recheck the calibration, and if it still is lower then you want it, look to any of the many ways to raise pH, such as high pH alk supplement when alk is needed, fresher air to the room, outside air to a skimmer, CO2 scrubber on skimmer, more photosynthesis, etc.
