Robert Dolomitic lime will change ph, but only very slightly. You need to apply lbs per acre rate as lbs per 100 sq ft before Dolomitic lime becomes a factor. (aka The Gareth Rate) I forgot where I put the data, but if I recall correctly it's 1 lb per 100 sq ft raises pH 0.1 Not enough to worry about. Your fish emulsion will override that.
