COMMENTS

To be honest I never measure it! The tank has been running for about 14 months and the fish have spawned so I guess its ok. In theory the ocean rock should help provide a high PH which is what Mbuna require, but my tap water is a high PH anyway.

How does the ocean rock do as far as PH level? Does it help keep it higher for the fish? I have some old live rock from a friend I was gonna use in my African tank but I don't know how it will affect the water.
