The salt product itself, along with aeration, should set the pH. If not, the problem likely is high CO2.
I didn't have much luck with my Red Sea test kits, but yours might be fine.
The only issues with Amquel are that it will confuse many ammonia test kits, and you'll need to keep dosing as long as the kit shows ammonia. The Red Sea will show ammonia even if the Amquel has bound it.
