This link, about fish tanks, says:

Unfortunately, reef tanks are not usually kept at those pH values, and so the buffering effect of the carbonate system is not as effective at holding pH steady as it might otherwise be.

so, what's good for the fish is good for the molasses.

Now if I could just cash those points in for something USEFUL, THAT would be an idea. I do not care about the points, for me, I ask questions and get answers and try to return the favor.
