## Description

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.

Review: Better Than Expected - I was using PH Up and PH Down Liquids at first but they did little or nothing (Only used PH UP) - My 20 Gal Freshwater Tank is a beast when it comes to keeping the water parameters in check, but, as anyone in this Hobby knows, the smaller tanks need more attention. I got the Alkaline Buffer and it is Amazingly Effective. It's results are instantaneous, safe for the fish even when I boost from 6.8 to 7.8 in a single dose - Also the Tank stays Stable longer - This Tank is Notorious for Dropping in PH - So now when I do a Water Top Off (2 Gallons Weekly) and a 20-25% Water Change (4-5 Gallons Weekly) I add 1/2 Teaspoon and 1 Teaspoon respectively and it stays Stable at a very Comfortable 7.6-7.8. The Bottle has a Ton of Quickly Dissolving Powder in it that I am guessing will last at least a couple years at the rate I am using it. NOTE:- This will make your water Very Cloudy for a short period of time - it is Harmless to the Fish and Dissipates after a couple hours. Chinese Oranda's like a PH near 8.0 - the rest of the Fish, Snails and my Two Fiddlers like it around 7.0 or higher a bit, so Everybody is Quite Happy at 7.6-7.8.
Review: works well. use as directed - helped me stabilize my ph.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How many gallons does this 600 grams treat?**
A: I HAVE A 55 GALLON AND IT WORKS GREAT BRINGS UP THE PH WITH NO PROBLEM WHEN THE WATER US YELLOW PUT IN TWO TEASPOONS AND IT DOES THE JOB

**Q: How long does the desired ph last in the tank? A day ? A week ?**
A: Hard to say, I did a 20% water change every week. This product makes the water higher in pH.

**Q: Does this need to be used at every water change or top off??**
A: I use it after water changes but I always check the KH of the water before adding the product. It is very powerful stuff so I suggest following the directions on the back. I try to keep my KH around 4-6 along with my GH. I would not put this in every time you top off.

**Q: I used too much seachem alkaline buffer and now my kh is too high. how do i remedy this other than a water change?**
A: You could add Seachem acid buffer to bring it down.  Most use the two together to get to correct alkalinity & ph desired.  See Seachem website for amounts to use if both buffers.

helped me stabilize my ph.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Instant pH boost!
*by K***K on July 26, 2022*

I have been raising mystery snail babies and the bioload from so many in one tank was making the pH plummet. Which is horrible for their shells. I tried a pH+ liquid that did nothing. Then I saw a recommendation for this stuff and I was desperate. One little scoop of this in their tank and the pH and KH went up! What a life saver this was for my snail babies last month at home before going off to find new homes. I’m using this in my other tanks now too. Amazing product and boosts that pH within minutes!!!!
