You're a great teacher! I have trouble focusing because of cognitive problems but you were super easy to follow, and now I actually understand pH.

[@PrimeTimeAquatics]

Thank you so much! :-)

[@jonathanmatzkin7768]

Great detail and clarification on this issue.And you really made the case of having to work with the water you get instead of chemically making radial parameter changes. Jason, good job. You've greatly increased my appreciation of this hobby.

THANK YOU!! This made everything make much more sense! I have been in this hobby for years. I got PH, I knew how to keep parameters but I always struggled with alkaline and basic...I took chemistry and biology in highschool but nothing since but knew I was missing something and this video just turned the gears finally. Thank you so much!

[@axxleseventeen1622]

To be honest, i was hesitant to learn about PH because i was afraid it would be too involved, and i wouldn't understand it. This video put all those fears to rest, and i walked away knowing more than i did before. Thank you for the video!

Your videos are sooooo incredibly helpful; thank you so much. As a newbie in the hobby trying to set up my new tank (cycling with danios in), your videos have been monumental! I’m wanting to get the pH down from 8.2 (tank will eventually house corys, a pleco, danios and maybe guppies), and this video made everything clear! God bless you, and thank you again for sharing your knowledge 💙

This video was awesome! I really appreciate the depth you went into to give us a better understanding of what is actually going on within our fishtanks in terms of PH! It's also super cool to hear, as a new view, that you're highly educated in biotech and chemistry! I can honestly say that your experience in the aquatic livestock trade and your extensive knowledge you've attained through your master's degrees make me trust you to the nth degree! Kudos for making such a badass life for yourself, bro! You've not only made me smarter, but you've inspired me! I'll be binge watching your vids in my free time for sure!

[@gjonesc380]

Thanks for all the information about pH. Be careful with dehumidifier water. The byproduct of condensing water on aluminum pipes is amonia. About a week ago I measured the amonia level in the dehumidifier water from my furnace/AC, because I wanted to use it to lower the pH in my aquarium. It matched the highest level shown on my API test chart!

Just using fluval stratum as my substrate brings my ph from an 7.8 to a 6. Had to add a little bit of crushed coral to balance. Would’ve left it alone but my mystery snails shells were starting to show signs of erosion. So far it’s helped and no chemicals necessary

[@rods1597]

Off topic but given your background maybe a subject you would consider doing a future video on is to what degree do water conditioners such as Prime and Ultimate neutralize micro nutrients contained in fertilizers used for planted tanks? Both of these conditioners claim to ( Detoxify heavy metals ) and while there is some discussion on the web I have not found any actual data identifying the nutrients that are affected and to the extent the concentrations are reduced. Maybe it cannot be determined without knowing the chemical formulation of these conditioners but this has always piqued my interest.

[@PrimeTimeAquatics]

That's a nice idea Rod. Thanks for watching

[@paynematt73]

Thank you professor Prime Time!

[@dhrh0500]

I already understood a lot of what you went over, but being led to embrace my tap water is a great idea! I also love the idea of using dehumidifier water. I'll try it very carefully. Our water is very high. Off the charts... literally. I've been trying hard to lower it, and keep it stable. My fish do seem happy, but it's been a multiple times a day effort. Thank you. :)

that was an awesome explanation. I've had 3 years of college level chemistry a million years ago and this was a brain cobweb buster. Thank you. We have a well and I'm dealing with pH close to 9, and soft water related to built in softener. I have a 180 gal Oscar tank, a 125 gal Barb tank with a 14" Pleco and a 20 gal tank with a couple loaches and a chinese algae eater. I'm trying to get the water stabilized to put some small fish, type yet to be determined, in the little tank, probably more Barbs. I'm pretty new at fish keeping, but I'm all in..... definitely learning a lot.

Thank you!

[@mmnelson82]

I really appreciate the biology/chemsitry approach of your videos. I live in Kansas and have a well. I want to keep and potentially breed South American fish, but the pH of my present aquarium is 8.2. I’m working on getting reverse osmosis water and adding organic matter like peat moss and leaf litter. Is it not really possible to maintain a consistent acidic pH because alkalinity is more closely connected to high pH?

[@PrimeTimeAquatics]

As you use more RO water, the alkalinity will come down. Once you balance the RO water and alkalinity you should be able to consistently maintain a lower pH.

[@brettgossett3112]

Well done! Extremely informative, thank you!

I just sent you a lengthy email about this. My tap is 7 but jumps to 8.2 as it gases off. I'm on a well. I'm trying to keep Discus. I've added an RO system to help drop ph. I realize though, stable ph is key.

The RO system will help for sure. You may have to remineralize the water if you go 100% RO though.

[@brooklynrobotworks9866]

Thank you; much appreciated. I keep crustaceans from the NW Atlantic - lobsters & crabs - and bracket my PH @ 8.2 to 8.3. NYC tap water is lower, so it's a constant issue with the major water changes I have to do for these destructive monsters. The biologists state that lower PH interferes with their chemoreceptors and their ability to sense.

[@Slider617]

Hi Jason! Wow, that was something else to take in. Thanks for presenting that material and giving us a visual about pH. Makes me wonder if I have the wrong fish in my new 75 gallon. I have one EBA, five Panda Corys, three Ottos, a single green peppered cory, and three yoyo loaches. I'm running a 40-gallon sponge filter from aquarium co-op and an aqua clear 70 with all three stages of media that it came with in the package. Where should my pH and water perameters be? It's been a week, and some of them seem a bit stressed now, despite the large upgrade from a 29-gallon.

[@PrimeTimeAquatics]

The otos are the only fish that really start to struggle in higher pH. Everything else is good from 6.5-8.0!

[@Slider617]

@PrimeTimeAquatics Thank-you so much. Ok I'll have to figure something out with them.

Hi Jason, Nice video 👍 The question I have is as you said apistos and altums love lower pH levels such as 4.5/5 or 6, so in those lower ph levels will there be any beneficial bacterial growth or any bacteria alive in aquariums? Generally we say pH level should be 6.5 - 8 for BB to grow and make the N cycle.

[@PrimeTimeAquatics]

It will grow, but usually slower and not necessarily the same genera.

[@jeffcarpenter6306]

Great information! Thank you

[@ML-ks2lj]

What do you mean adding the crushed coral as buffering it? Will it raise the KH? And he'll keep kh stable? My tank parameters are all greasy besides kh it is staying at 0ppm for some reason. I am doing daily water changes and it just won't rise. I have 1 price of drift wood and about an eighth of a funky crushed egg shell in there. And my son threw a very small shark tooth in there lol but that kh isn't moving

Aragonite might be your best option. You can either add it to the substrate or put it in a filter bag in your filter.

[@PrimeTimeAquatics]

It shouldn’t do anything to pH.

[@Robert-q6m9d]

@@PrimeTimeAquatics thank you

[@Robert-q6m9d]

The reason I ask you that question was because I’ve been keeping fish for years. I always used an under gravel filter system as part of my filtration. I always kept live plants. They did fantastic I think in part to the water quality lighting and the under gravel filter system. I wanted my children when they were small to see live bear fish. it was pretty cool to see my son get a fish tank of his own when he was older and had his own place. anyway, I moved to a new location cranked up my 55 gallon everything look great plants were taken off fish look great color was great. PH was good as time went on the pH would rise. The pH out of the tap was 7.0 It really started being a pain in the butt chasing the high pH made it no fun. never experience that before ever. chemicals water changes more than usual. Take back off again. I even dug out my old diatom. ordered Earth powder online didn’t matter still hi pH The only thing I didn’t do is use an under gravel filter this time. Tore it down put it in the basement. I wanna start it back up. I picked up a 20 gallon tank and a underground filter. I wanna see if it helps with pH but I guess it won’t. I was looking for answers and that’s how I discovered your channel. Thank you for answering my question.

[@andrewt3887]

Fantastic video on pH !!! Question: Could a Malawi tank be ok at 7.4 pH ? I currently buffer it up to 8.2 but it comes out the tap at 7.4

[@PrimeTimeAquatics]

I think so. I would drop it down to that level over the course of a month or so and see how they do.

[@MrPhillipgraham]

pHanks so much that was incredibly informative. :)

[@KaveManAquatics]

Hey Jason, specific question. My tap ph is 7.0 but I keep my tank at 8.2 for african cichlids. For years I’ve been using Malawi buffer during every water change to keep my PH at 8.2. I’d like to stop using the buffer so I’m thinking of adding aragonite sand to my substrate and crushed coral to my canister to buffer my water. Question is, with this setup, if I do 80% water change as usual and add tap water at 7.0 without the Malawi buffer, will this setup still safely get my water back to 8.2 PH? Or am I better off adding Malawi buffer forever? 🤦🏼‍♂️ Thanks for your help!

[@PrimeTimeAquatics]

I'm not sure how big of a change you will see at the time of water change. I would keep the buffer on hand until you can get a good feel for how much a water change will impact the parameters?

[@KaveManAquatics]

Prime Time Aquatics Thanks, will do!

[@wendyjo6233]

Great video. But... what are my options for keeping a stable PH in an 8g planted tank? I just started tank. Mopani wood did bring buffer PH a small amount. From around 8 from tap, to around 7.5. I have no dehumidifier or RO. How do I keep mine stable for plants and possibly Cory’s, Shrimp, Betta or Honey Gourami, live bearers? I haven’t decided what fish until tank has cycled. I’m so confused! As with a lot of people, I started this tank without enough research!!!!

[@PrimeTimeAquatics]

Once your tank is cycled my guess is the pH will be stable. If it's around neutral (or in your case between 7-8) you should be fine.
