["Yvan Alleau" <yalleau@coas.oregonstate.edu>]

hi Dave,
my tap water is at pH 5, so no use for rising my tank pH.
I'll go with the dolomite powder is i can find some in little Corvallis!
thank you

Yvan if you have a pH meter why dont you simply add a
little bit of tap water. I have found using your pH
meter simply add the desired amount of Tap and you can
generaly arrive at a stable pH. I can't tell you a
formula because everyones tap water is diffrent. Using
your pH meter you'll have to figure it out for your
self.  You might try simply to add some tap water. BTW
you must let it aeriate and sit for a few hours before
your sure what pH youll have.

Dave
