I need to drop my ph in one of my tanks. For 55 gallons of water, how much vinegar do you add to lower your ph, and how much will it lower it?

Thanks

Don't know, but I have been using the PH Buffer and it works great! Just add it in the mornings with a dose of calcium and within a week, I am perfect.

Yea, I was looking for a quick fix, but I'll probably just buy some PH buffer. I was being my normal cheapskate self.

you don't have a pH monitor? For a 55g you should be able to add vingear dropwise at first then figure out where its going. I wouldn't do it without a monitor but that is me...
