small powerhead in sump help boost ph drop?

[rsantangelo3@co]

Will a small power head in my sump help boost ph drop? I have a hang on fuge with 26 watt bubl running opposite my main but ph still drops into the 7.8/7.9 range is this ok?

There's really nothing wrong with your ph dropping down to those levels during the night. A lot of successful reef tanks do this.

Here's a good article.

Yeah, pretty much agree there.
I ran my sump/fuge light on reverse cycle(night time) and that helped stabilize a little.
Mine goes from 8.1-8.3
