Low PH

[Stingro]

Both my 140 and 75 gal are at the ph of 6.0. I had the 140 gal up to 7.6 just a few days ago when I added ph buffer. It was at 6.6 at the time of adding the ph buffer but it has already dropped to 6.0. I do have driftwood and a whole lot of ceramic rings in both sides of my filter along with carbon.

Anybody know what is dropping my ph so low? I want to keep it above 7.0 cause my flowerhorn and bichir colors are a bit dull.
