Is it normal for RO/DI water mixed with Instant Ocean salt to result in a

pH
in the 7.8 range?
Water has been mixed for days and is being circulated well.

This pH reading comes from both my newly set up tank as well as the water

I
am holding in reserve. New Salifert test. Lights are not on very much- ?
hours a day. Room air is fresh.

The only alkalinity test I have is Red Sea (Salifert backordered) and it
reads "normal to high".

My TBS live rock was put in Wednesday evening- as of yet no ammonia or
nitrite readings.
How much should I worry?
Should I adjust the tank water pH?
Should I adjust the pH in the reserve water before I do a water change?
If so- what is recommended to use?
