    1ppm makes no difference dude. just turn the needle valve open a little more. it's ok even you get 20-25ppm. Healthy level.
    I'm back!

    Very hard to be that accurate. you can only aim for a range. If you are using a needle valve, then just turn it a bit more... something like 1mm... then measure pH again in about an hour.

    If you have a bubble counter, then maybe increase by 1/4. E.g. if you now have 20 bubbles per 10 seconds, then adjust until you get 25 bubbles per 10 seconds.

    Why use punctuation? See what a difference it makes:
    A woman, without her man, is nothing.
    A woman: without her, man is nothing.

    May i know why you need to be that accurate?

    As long as it is in the healty range of 20ppm to 30ppm. It will be fine for both the plants and the fish.
