first, is it even safe to use a PH lower made for a pool? if so it says 6oz for every 2500 gal. which is how much for 100 gal tank? and would my water stay balanced? also after adding ferts..

.24 oz would be the right amount given the parameters you gave. Of course, that doesn't take nutes, or other environmental factors into consideration.

nutrients will affect ph, so add nutes first and then test ph. also add the ph down a little at a time and do readings in-between

You're doing hydro? I am clueless about Hydro. I was starting to think that dirt was too complicated for me.
