Just keep in mind that the PH will drastically fall when adding the acid. Let your SW mix for another 24 hours before using to bring the PH back up.
And for the love of all things salty, under no circumstances should acid be added to a running system.

Thank you! I like the “for the love of all things salty” I could just see someone dumping acid in their reef [emoji23]
