You will need to keep an eye on your kh as well.
My own ph is around 5.8 but its stable

My Ph is about 6.3. As long as it's stable, your fish should be fine. Just make sure you acclimate any new additions very slowly, by pouring a little bit of tank water in the beg every 5-10 minutes and when it gets full, empty it out and do it again, then net the fish and put it in the tank.

This will explain it a bit more. Ideally your kh should be at least 4. You can buy strips that have this information.

Your bogwood may be bringing your ph level down.
