  2. fish breathing heavily

    Hi everyone! I just disconnected my airstone and tested ph 8.2! Now, 1. If I get a ph will my ph continue to rise until infinity? 2. Fishies are still breathing a little heavy, but not as bad as before. They are not going to the top trying to gulp air, just labored breathing. Temp is 78.2...
