South American Cichlid Buffer 7.0™ is designed to enhance the natural environment of South American cichlids by decreasing hardness and adjusting pH. It is formulated to maintain a pH in the neutral range (7.0). When used with South American Cichlid Buffer 4.5+™ the pH can be specifically targeted (see chart, left panel). South American Cichlid Buffer™ will also remove chlorine, chloramines and ammonia (commonly found in municipal water supplies). For optimum replication of the South American waters, use with South American Cichlid Salt™ and South American Cichlid Trace™.

Sizes: 250 mL, 500 mL, 2 L, 4 L, 20 L

 
DIRECTIONS: Use 1 capful (5 mL) for every 10 L (2.5 gallons*) daily until intended pH is reached. Thereafter, use once a month or with water changes as required to maintain pH. To lower pH, use South American Cichlid Buffer 4.5+™. To target a particular pH use in combination with South American Cichlid Buffer 4.5+™ following the chart below. (Note: The 2 & 4 L container’s cap is 10 mL).

SA Cichlid Salt™ is a chemically sound blend of salts designed to replicate the natural environment of South American cichlids (e.g. Apistogramma, Oscars, Rams, Angels, Crenicara, Geophagus). It contains all physiologically essential elements such as magnesium, calcium, sodium, and potassium. It does not contain harmful or unnecessary ingredients such as nitrates, phosphates, arsenic, lithium, or cadmium.. more....
