You need a good water circulation to start , I had always use a PH Controller in my 110g tank it keeps my PH at 6.5
I have a Mag 5 in a close loop system with a co2 reactor,uv light, and heater, My filter is a Eheim Pro 2 2028. I decided to buy a DC I install it in my tank and for the whole month it did not change color Blue?? I even went by BPS without the controller by the end of the day my PH was at 5.9 and that did not change the color it was still Blue??
Now I run my controller just to read the PH an run my CO2 {BPS} only when the lights come on. The DC is still in my tank for looks.
