Hey Guys
I have a major BBA problem at the moment.
I have changed a lot of stuff recently to try and alleviate this. I have added an inline diffuser, and a spray bar, as well as reducing lighting intensity.
I want to conduct a PH profile to see if my work has been effective at sorting the CO2 stability.
I have seen PH profiling mentioned a few times and wanted to get some facts on how to do it.
From what I have seen, you do the following;
Where do we need to sample the water from? I could use a pippette to get water from various levels in the tank, but should I?
Thanks for any feedback

From what I have seen, you do the following;
- Test PH before Co2 comes on.
- Test PH every hour (or more frequently) between lights on and when lights go off.
- We are aiming for a drop of 1 PH unit before lights come on.
