    a nice slow way to raise salinity is replace evaporated water with salt water until your salinity is where you want it. be carefull not to go too far tho. how is the airflow in your house and around your tank? sometimes stagnant air can cause a buildup of CO2 that will cause low pH.[edit] you also may have low alkalinity, which will make your pH unstable and low. what salt are you using?

    sorry for the edit, just re-read your post. are you sure the alk test kit you are using is accurate?
