Hi!

I decided to put in one of the DYI portland cement live-rocks in my aquarium even though its been cured for only 5 days + 2 hours in the oven + twice with two-molaric hydrochloric acid treatment..

The reason is that I have a very low pH in the aquarium ~ 6.8, and the live rock has currently a pH of about 12.

Im going to monitor the pH intensily the coming days.

The aquarium is 130 liters and the specific rock is abour 2-3 kg. See the picture.
