raising ph on new 5.5g

Just started a 5.5g and everything checks out fine, but my ph is only around 7.8. I dose 2-part in my larger reef and ph is fine over there. Any suggestions, or should I dose 2 part on this nano? (I dosed the 2-part sparingly on a 10g I had a couple of years ago)

 

Thanks!

Try Kents superbuffer dKh.....

 

That being said, you'd be better off just letting the tank mature. "New tank syndrome" will drive you crazy! Just wait a few weeks then start trying to stabilize the parameters. I took me almost 6 months before my 5.5 calmed down.

what are alk and CA currently? Are you running a fuge? What time of day did you get the 7.8 reading? (before lights are on, during, or after?)
