I would like to lower my ph to neutral. My tap water is around 7.6 and my aquarium is around 7.4. I was thinking of using CO2 to lower it (as well as feed my plants). I have been using coconut shells to lower it but it doesnt seem to work well. Also how do i keep it down safely so that when i change the water the ph wont change drastically

hmm, i dont really want to use chemicals or peat moss since my mom is already angry at all the stuf i do to the tank (she has no idea what ph is, all she knows about fish are that they need water) is there any other way to lower the tank ph as well as buffer it so it will stay that way?
