Additional Information

  • A non-phosphate buffer to lower pH and buffer with Alkaline Buffer. Acid Buffer lowers pH and buffers between 5.0 and 8.0 when used with Alkaline Buffer. Both buffers are designed for the planted aquarium or for very hard water where phosphate buffers may pose an algae or cloudiness problem.
  • As Acid Buffer lowers pH it converts carbonate alkalinity (KH) into available CO2.
  • If using with RO or DI water for a water change, then use with Acid Buffer at a fixed ratio (see chart) to set the desired pH. Once pH is set, add water to aquarium as soon as possible to avoid pH fluctuations (for best results, base ratio on weight of product added).


Use these ratios to target a pH
Acid Buffer   Alkaline Buffer pH
1 : 0.5 5.0
1 : 1.0 6.0
1 : 1.3 6.5
1 : 2.0 7.0
1 : 2.5 7.5
1 : 4.0 8.0
