Liquid Discus Buffer™helps to replicate the ideal Discus environment (low pH & low GH (General Hardness)). Liquid Discus Buffer™ will lower pH and keep it lowered. Liquid Discus Buffer™ also softens water by precipitating calcium and magnesium. Use Discus Trace™ to restore the proper level of trace elements required by thriving, healthy Discus.
Liquid Neutral Regulator™ and Liquid Discus Buffer™ can be used in combination to achieve a desired pH when performing water changes or adding top off water. The ratio chart below is designed for r/o water where there is generally no buffering capacity.
Sizes: 250 mL, 500 mL, 2 L, 4 L, 20 L
Use 1 capful (5 mL) for every 10 L (2.5 US gallons) daily until intended pH is reached. Thereafter, use once a month or with water changes as required to maintain pH. To raise pH, use Neutral Regulator™ (liquid or dry). To target a particular pH use in combination with Liquid Neutral Regulator™ following the chart below. In very hard water the softening process may cause cloudiness. In such cases, Liquid Acid Buffer™ may be preferable. Use Prime® to dechlorinate tap water before doing a water change.
