The most likely causes of a shift in pH are: 1  Something in the water source buffering the water. 2  Something in the tank buffering the water. 3  or Something you are adding to the tank.
How to increase the pH in the aquarium. A common method of raising the aquariumâs pH is by adding baking soda. 1 teaspoon of baking soda per 5 gallons is generally considered a safe amount for small incremental increases. Itâs best to remove the fish from the tank prior to raising the pH. Then simply dissolve the required amount of baking soda in some conditioned water and add it to the aquarium. Once the pH is at the desired level you can re-introduce the fish just like you would when you first brought them home from the store.
