PH before/after CO2 scrubber

[Optionman]

this morning i added a C02 scrubber to my protein skimmer's air intake. below is a graph of my daily PH fluctuations for the past week. (the range for the past 2 days was depressed by a long maintenance with the pumps and lights off)

i will update the graph below in 48 hours and let everyone see the results. hoping to boost my daily range from 8.1-7.7 to 8.3-7.9.

Not sure why there are so many posts around here about people obsessing over PH. While I do have an apex probe, I never look at it. Your ranges before the CO2 scrubber is fine and all your doing is throwing money away on media that will get super expensive(considering it usually depletes in 24 hours depending on the incoming air).

My tank ranges from 7.68 at night to just over 7.8 during the day, and everything in my tank is growing and is super healthy.

Quit obsessing over PH, your range is fine.

How much media are you using and how often to you have to change it? I just set mine up today
