PH range

[Luke Schnabel]

I just got my first round of SPS to try out, I've had a frag of stylopora for almost 3 months and it's doing great. I've been keeping my Alk around 9.5dkh. My tanks PH is 8.0-8.1. Do you think I should try for 10hkh and get my PH a little higher?

It's fine where it is, with your Alk where it is, your pH is more a reflection of the amount of CO2 in your system, and its surrounding atmosphere.

Im thinking if I keep my Alk around 10dkh and run a fresh airline from outside into my protien skimmer, It might be able to Maintain right around 8.2-8.3...
