Use with Rift Lake Cichlid Salt
Fritz Rift Lake Cichlid Buffer is a special blend of carbonate salts formulated to replicate the natural chemistry/habitat of the African Rift Lakes by increasing buffer capacity, alkalinity and pH. When used as directed, Fritz Rift Lake Cichlid Buffer will maintain a pH of 7.8 - 8.4 for Malawi and Victorian Cichlids, and 9.0 - 9.4 for Tanganyikian Cichlids. Fritz Rift Lake Cichlid Buffer will help your cichlids thrive and reproduce while promoting health, growth and intensified color.
For best results use in combination with Fritz Rift Lake Probiotic Cichlid Salt.
Directions & Dosage
Dosages are per 10 U.S. gallons (37.85 liters): Tanganyika: Use 5 g (1 tsp); Malawi: Use 2.5 g (1/2 tsp); Victoria: Use 2.5 g (1/2 tsp). Use the amount indicated for the lake you are wanting to simulate. Initially add daily until the desired pH is reached and maintained. Use as required to maintain pH, usually every 2-3 weeks.
- For best results, use RODI water. If using dechlorinated tap water, measure KH with a suitable test kit, and adjust dose to accommodate current alkalinity level
- For best results, add Rift Lake Cichlid Buffer to RODI water in a separate container before adding water to aquarium.
