Product description

Highly concentrated solution for adding carbonate if there are deficits in the aquarium.

Carbon is an important macronutrient and a distinguishing characteristic of all organic compounds. In the water, inorganic carbon also acts as a pH buffer in the form of the carbonate hardness KH. Carbonate is always an integral part of the calcium supply system in the aquarium and forms the basis for coral growth. The coral combines calcium with carbonates to form solid lime, calcium carbonate. It is found in the sea in concentration levels of 6 – 7 °dKH. We recommend a carbonate hardness in a reef aquarium between 6 – 9 °dKH.

Chemical symbol: KH

 

Benefits

  • Ultra-pure, stabilized carbonate solution for correcting any deficit in the reef aquarium individually

  • Helps to reliably and accurately add carbonate

  • Easy dosing with the integrated dropper and dosing cap

  • Suitable for both a manual dosing as well as for dosing pumps
