I have been trying to come up with a plan to up ph thats the easiest! Being a woman and don't get any help from hubby and not very mechinally inclined or tech savy! lol I live in florida so If I run a line it would be hot humid air and I also have my yard chemically sprayed so that wouldnt be an option. Sure cant leave windows open! If I use kalk how would i make sure it dosnt get to high? I have a seneye that I dont run but I think it might have a ph slide I can buy! What about these ph boosters that dont raise alk? I was reading about them the other day but I remember also reading never add those but if it dosnt raise alk then I dont see what the harm would be! Anyone tried that besides aquavitro? I dont get much growth at all from corals so I am assuming its ph either that or putting hands in tank to much! lol I have a lot of new frags on sand bed that snails keep knocking over so thats why I keep putting my hands in and have yet to decide on permanent placement either!

I like brightwell 8.3 if you dose for Alk. Keeps ph stable and it's relatively simple and cheap for a single dosing method.

Most houses aren't airtight so an airline to outside isn't as hard to do if you know what to look for. You probably have a dryer vent, exhaust fan vent, plumbing vent etc you could tap into.

A window open for a bit will help too. Surface agitation and skimmer seem to help people. Fortunately, I've never had to battle low ph and don't really know why.
