Additional Information

  • Alkaline Buffer is a non-phosphate buffer to raise pH and alkalinity (KH) and buffer with Acid Buffer.
  • These buffers are designed for the planted aquarium or for very hard water where phosphate buffers may pose an algae or cloudiness problem.
  • Alkaline Buffer raises pH and buffers between 7.2 and 8.5.
  • It is gentle, safe and enhances the freshwater environment.
  • 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
