I've never heard about that. As far as I know, acidification is caused by the oceans picking up CO₂ from the atmosphere.

A quick search seems to back you up. If that is the case how did sealife survive during times of high co2 concentrations historically?

It's not that high CO2 is intrinsically bad. It's just that the change is happening quicker than a lot of species can adapt.
