Generally, my water seems ok, but is running a little high on the pH side - currently about 7.8. I have been trying to use pH down to get it down as it had been around 8, but it seems to be more effective on reducing my TA (currently about 100, was about 150) than my pH.
Is there a suggested way of adding the pH down, like dissolving the pH down in water and then adding it, or does adding the crystals directly have a better effect on pH vs. TA?
