How do you lower the ph, can you use the pol chemicals to lower it.
Checked water temp last night now it is about 60 looks like it gets a little coolin the house

PH is to high want to be as close to 7 as possible but lower it slowlt. The mid 60's is also to cold  try to bring temp up to at least the mid 70s I would also air

I just picked up 50- 3-6" tiplapia for both my ibc tanks which I have 150 gallons in each both should support 3 grow beds each of 4x4 , water temps are mid 60's and the tilapia seem not too active, is that too cold.

Also should I be using a air pump? My system has a drain tube that goes to the bottom of the tank with a ventuti to let air in , but I dont know if that is enough, maybe the fish are lacking oxygen, ph is 8.5,

Hello I'm fresh to the group, we live in st,paul. We finished putting up our high tunnel just before new years( crazy minnesota weather). If you're from here you probably no about axman? While there looking for a cork we noticed a huge rubber thing, which turned out to be a 1500 gallon water storage tank and 3 1/4 hp pump from a civil defense emergency mobile hospital from 1964. I said to the brains of this operation I bet we could do fish in that, and she said maybe. After she did some research we learned that it had been lined with neopreme( which is safe for growing fish in) and we're now the owners of. Now I have the great joy of learning aqua ponics/hydroponics and high tunnel growing. I'm looking for suggestions on fish, I'm a urban farmer so I pretty much understand the hydroponics part but may have questions on media use. Thanks for your time and look forward to corresponding with everyone.
