Hello,

If the water has a PH of less than 7 how can I correct it?

Are you changing any water and vacumming the gravel?
dr-solo@wi.rr.xx.com - 24 May 2004 15:13 GMT
how much less, what is the pH out of the tap, what is the hardness of the water?  
how many fish, how big a tank, how long been running, got gravel?

Try baking soda to increase pH (and also buffer).
