My pH is 7.2 and TA is 70. Want to get pH up to 7.5.

I've been aerating for an hour by having the 3 eye balls turned up. 2 are bubbling, 1 is throwing the water up in the air about 3 inches. There's been no change in pH. Am I expecting too much? How long would be a reasonable time to leave it before I test again?
 
It will take a few days with your setup. As the TA gets lower (below 80ppm) it takes longer and longer for the pH to rise.
