Default Re: pH issues!!!

No the filter is not new, I was referring to the noise from the water dropping back into the tank. I guess I could do that thing with the soda bottle. But I would just rather not have a filter there at all. So I will see if I can get something submersible powerhead.. They seem quite expensive though...

And yes, I live in the city where the water has a high pH of 10 when it comes straight from the tap.

what kind of bogwood would pring downt he pH? Does anyone recommend against using the neutral regulator? I just don't really like the idea since I will just have to use it all the time and then buy more.

When I set up my next tank, should I not add the oyster grit? I was thinking about setting up a 10 gallon for german blue rams but if it turns out the same as my 30 gallon, the water will be too hard them.
