So my ph has dropped from 8.3 to 8.0-8.04 recently and I have not been able to figure out the culprit. Until just now!

Racked my brain thinking...what have I changed? And bam there it was I added a 2nd heater to keep a more stable temp. Tank is sitting at a steady 77 Fahrenheit now where before a steady 74-75.

Temperature dose effect ph at 25 Celsius witch converted to Fahrenheit is you guessed it 77.
 
Good to know.

Are you dosing anything?
