Peat might do the trick
The role of master and servant begin to cloud in the water..
Coral chips would lower ph.
As mentioned, Peat, ketapang leaves, and lava rocks or chips, presence of driftwood, decaying leaves or fauna (not recommended of cause). Actually most organic things will make water acidic when they break down, like the waste of fauna.
erm.. i thought coral chips raises pH?
other bros have discussed this before.

you might want to try the peat granules they talk about?
Few methods:
1. CO2 Injection - Lowers pH but unreliable as CO2 levels flucuate
2. Ketapang Leaves - Tannins will colour water brown
3. Peat - Same thing as Ketapang, will leak tannins. Several forms available: granules, peat moss, in a filter bag, etc
4. Blackwater Extract - Basically the concentrated "juice" from soaking peat in water
5. Inorganic acids - Stuff like HCl, H2SO4, etc. Example of aquarium safe product would be Seachem's Acid Buffer.
