Just want to know how do you adjust your ph levels and should you adjust them? Can you adjust it by water changes or do you have to add chemicals like the PH up and down ones?
So should you adjust them or leave them the way they are instead of adding chemicals if you have to? Just want to know that because my ph level is like 6.0 which is as low as the chart goes so it could be lower and want to know if I should adjust it?
Also whats the go with nitrates and nitrates they have confused me because its exactly the same word so whats the difference and what level should they be at? Mine are both on zero at the moment so is that all fine? Also how do you adjust them if they get to high i'm guessing just water changes?
I know what ammonia is so I don't need that explained just the nitrates confuse me and wondering what ph level my tank should be at and how to adjust it?
Thanks.
