Ph + Minerals
Featured:
• To control the increasing of pH and KH
• To bring all the trace elements
• Efficient, simple and accurate
• For seawater and freshwater aquariums
Minerals increases carbonatic hardness (KH) to ideal values and it also increases the pH value, which is determined by the KH and the amount of CO2 in the water.
Only by varying the KH it is possible to permanently affect the pH value (with a stable CO2 value).
Minerals enriches the water with mineral salts and the essential trace elements.
It can be used both in the seawater and in the freshwater aquariums
Minerals is good for all kinds of freshwater aquariums, particularly good for African cichlids aquariums, where the increase of the KH, and consequently of the PH - about 10-15° dKH, pH 7.5-8.5 - is important to create the optimal conditions that exist in nature.
In saltwater aquariums, it is extremely useful to balance the precipitation of KH (KH lower than 7° dKH) and raise it to 8-10°dKH, which is the optimal value.
It brings all the essential trace elements to the seawater.
How Mineral works
• It constantly controls the increase of the KH, and consequently of the pH, and it brings it to the desired values. In freshwater aquariums the KH shouldn't fall under 2-4° dKH
• It increases the pH value to over 7.5 in the freshwater
• It compensates the sudden drops in KH caused by the nitrification process in very crowded aquariums
• It balances the precipitations of KH (KH lower than 7° dKH) and brings the value back to 8-10°dKH, which is the optimal value.
• A higher KH improves the blotter effect of water and prevents dangerous oscillations of pH
• Effective in case of sudden lowerings of the pH value (KH of 0° dKH and pH lower than 5), as it quickly brings the KH back to a minimal value of 2-4° d KH
• It is a delicate treatment, which damages neither fish nor plants
QUANTITIES:
5 gr in 100 litres every 2-3 days (a full cap) produce a carbonatic hardness (KH) of 0.6° dKH.
(total hardness 1.3 dGH)
We suggest to dissolve Minerals in a container with some water from the aquarium
The addition of a considerable amount of Minerals could prevent the dissolution of a small part of the added salts
