Ph Balance

[cheddargremlin]

I have a 110ltr community tank and live in an area with very hard water, my ph is currently around 8. i was wondering what the best products are to lower the ph?
i have tried waterlife buffer but it just made the water cloudy and didnt much affect the ph level. any suggestions?

tank stock is
1 lrg plec
2 bristlenose
2 angels
2 dwarf neon rainbows
4 platies
4 clown loaches
and a molly or 2

The best product is .....NONE, messing with ph is asking for trouble and more complex then we think, a sudden swing for whatever reason can wipe the tank it. Acclimatization is they key and most fish will settle into a diff ph value. people even keep discus at high ph with sucess although not a good idea if your starting out
