your pH doesn't appear too bad!

your pH doesn't appear too bad!

how was pH measured? (probe/test kit)

what was measured... water from display or effluent from reactor?

do you have Wii Fit?

I have the neptune pro 3 in sump and pinpoint in tank both read the same. Don't have a cal reactor . I have the wii but no fit.

Looks similar to mine.

I calibrated my probe about 6 weeks ago and was assuming its working well...but I think it needs to be recalibrated/replaced. I am leaning toward replacing it since its 18 mos old...

Whats the life expectancy of a probe?

But back to your original question...

Kalk or oxygen are basically the only two ways to raise it. If your continuing to have issues and run a Ca reactor may wish to have that off until the Ph stays up awhile.

Then there is always the possible "Wii Fit" factor

I have to thank Capt_Cully for this one he and I were talking about it today and he said it maybe my fireplace , but it wasn't that, them I when to the basement and seen the heater on , looked at ph and found it was dropping a little so I turn it off and with in 2 hrs ph was 8.04. thx for all the help.
