Seachem Cichlid Lake Salt is a chemically-sound blend of salts designed to replicate the natural environment of cichlids. It contains all physiologically essential elements such as magnesium, calcium, sodium and potassium, as well as trace elements such as iron, aluminum, and iodide.

• Chemically sound blend of salts
• Replicates the natural environment of African Cichlids
• Contains all physiologically essential elements

Contains no harmful or unnecessary ingredients such as nitrates, phosphates, arsenic, lithium, or cadmium.

Dosing: (by fish origin).

• Tanganyika - 1.5 tsp. per 10 gallons (250 grams treats 160 gallons)
• Malawi - .75 tsp. per 10 gallons (250 grams treats 350 gallons)
• Victoria - .5 tsp. per 10 gallons (250 grams treats 500 gallons)

Directions: (All doses given for 10 gallons [40 L]).

• Tanganyika: Use 11 g (1.5 teaspoons).
• Malawi: Use 5.5 g (3/4 teaspoons).
• Victoria: Use 3.6 g (1/2 teaspoon).
• pH Buffering: Seachems Tanganyika Buffer (pH 9.0–9.4) and Malawi/Victoria Buffer (pH 7.8–8.4) should be used to adjust carbonate hardness and pH.

Tips: Use when setting up an aquarium and when making water changes. To add salt to an established tank, base dose on water being changed. Do not use salt when simply replacing evaporated water. It is best to dissolve the salt in freshwater before use.

Seachem Malawi/Victoria Buffer is a blend of carbonate salts designed to enhance the natural environment of cichlids by increasing hardness and buffer capacity, and reaching and maintaining a healthy pH range of 7.8-8.4.

• Raises and maintains a pH range of 7.8 - 8.4
• Freshwater aquarium additive increases water hardness (alkalinity)
• pH conditioner/buffer for Malawi and Victoria cichlids

For optimum replication of the Malawi/Victoria environment, use with Cichlid Lake Salt and Cichlid Trace.

Directions: Use 5 g (1 level teaspoon) for each 10 to 20 gallons of water each day until desired pH is attained and maintained. Thereafter, use as required to maintain pH, usually no more than once every two to three weeks.

Tips: It is best to dissolve the buffer in freshwater before use. Use when setting up an aquarium or making water changes (preferably after the addition of Seachems Cichlid Lake Salt) and between water changes as needed to maintain pH. Seachems Malawi/Victoria Buffer is formulated to maintain a pH between 7.8 and 8.4, depending on the amount used. To attain a lower pH than 7.8, you may use Seachems Acid Buffer in combination with Malawi/Victoria Buffer. To attain a higher pH than 8.4, use Tanganyika Buffer.

Seachem Neutral Regulator adjusts pH to neutral (pH 7.0) from either a low or high pH and maintains it there. It softens water by precipitating calcium and magnesium while removing any chlorine, chloramine, or ammonia.

• Adjusts high or low pH to 7.0
• Removes chlorine, chloramines and ammonia
• Makes other conditioning unnecessary

The use of SeaChem Neutral Regulator makes other conditioning unnecessary. To lower pH below 7.0 use Neutral Regulator with Acid Regulator (or Discus Buffer). To raise pH above 7.0 use with Alkaline Regulator. All of these products will enhance and stabilize the freshwater aquarium environment.

Use Fresh Trace to restore the proper level of trace elements required by thriving, healthy freshwater community fish.

Tanganyika Buffer is a blend of carbonate salts designed to enhance the natural environment of cichlids by increasing alkalinity, carbonate hardness, buffer capacity, and pH. It is formulated to maintain a pH of 9.0 to 9.4.

• Designed to enhance the natural environment of cichlids
• Increases water hardness, buffer capacity, and pH.
• Formulated to maintain a pH of 9.0 to 9.4

Instructions: Use 5 g (1 level teaspoon) for each 40 to 80 L (10 to 20 US gallons) of water each day until desired pH is attained and maintained. Thereafter, use as required to maintain pH, usually no more than once every two to three weeks.

TIPS: It is best to dissolve the buffer in freshwater before use. Use when setting up an aquarium or making water changes (preferably after the addition of Seachem Cichlid Lake Salt) and between water changes as needed to maintain pH. Seachem Tanganyika Buffer is formulated to maintain a pH between 9.0 and 9.4, depending on the amount used. For lower pH, use Malawi/Victoria Buffer (pH 7.8 so 8.4), either alone or in combination with Tanganyika Buffer.
