Seachem Discus Buffer helps to replicate the ideal Discus environment (low pH & low GH (General Hardness)). Discus Buffer™ will lower pH and keep it lowered. Discus Buffer™ also softens water by precipitating calcium and magnesium. Use Discus Trace™ to restore the proper level of trace elements required by a thriving, healthy Discus.
Neutral Regulator™ and Discus Buffer™ can be used in combination to achieve the 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.
Directions
Use 1 level teaspoon (7 g) for every 40-80 L (10-20 gallons*) daily until the intended pH is reached. Thereafter, use once a month or with water changes as required to maintain pH. To raise pH, use Neutral Regulator™. To target a particular pH use in combination with Neutral Regulator™ following the chart below. This chart assumes the use of unbuffered water (RO or DI). If water is already buffered use the chart as a starting guide. Use Prime® to dechlorinate tap water before doing a water change.
