moving an oscar ph is off

Question
Hi

I am moving one of my 2 oscars to a new tank.  Its been set up for 9 days. I added cycle, water rocks and media from the old tank.  Also put in a few pellets. Im using the seeding method.

My readings on the new tank are >

PH 7.2 Ammonia .25 nitrites 0 nitrates 10

The old tank readings are>

PH 6.2 - 6.4 ammonia 0 nitrites 0 nitrates 40

My faucet PH is 7.0.  

water temp is 80-82 in both tanks

I filled the NEW tank with the old tank water.   My question is the PH is so off what should I do to lower the new tank  naturally before I move my oscar. Or can I move him?

I added 2 bogwood or driftwood from the petstore that were in the old tank, to the new tank (I dont care to use chemicals only if needed) THe ph rises a bit after each water change.  I dont get why the old tanks ph is low its the same water.  

thanks

Answer
Sometimes water will come from the tap at 8.0pH and, within a couple of hours, shift to 7.5pH.

I would just make sure to rip acclimate him to the new tank.

Here is an article of drip acclimation:
