carbon filtters are crap get new ones honestly

carbon is neutral and therefore should not affect any ph lowering products that you use, the carbon is there not to filter as such, but to aid in the removal of nitrates in the water naturally produced by the fish. it would also help to test the water from you tap so you know if changing water is having an effect. i think it is possible in the uk to get purified water for fish tanks, although i have always wondered how it is delivered and how you get it to the right temperature for your tank. i would suggest that conditions in your tank are very good as the fish would not lay eggs otherwise, certainly not 6 times at any rate.

I've read they use put peatmoss in the filter to turn the water acidic.. Or dried oak leaves in the tank.

It shouldn't affect that no, but carbon filters aren't all that efficient.
