Alkalin 8.3 Liquid

Alkalin 8.3P is a multi-component automatic buffer that regulates pH, unlike sodium carbonate its use makes for a much more stable aquarium. Eliminates pH and KH instability caused by poor salt mixes and ineffective buffering products. Highly-effective alkalinity(KH)-increasing (”buffer”) solution. Provides a source of carbonates, which make up the majority by weight ofaragonite, the mineral secreted by reef-building organisms as skeletalmaterial. Alkalinity, also referred to as carbonate hardness or buffering capacity, is essentially a means of quantifying the stability of pH in a solution, such as aquarium water. Alkalinity is of extreme importance in a marine aquarium, owing to the manner in which it influences pH. In an aquarium, weak acids formed by oxygen respiration and the decomposition of organic material gradually deplete alkalinity. If left unchecked, the alkalinity drops below a critical level and pH begins to fluctuate more wildly than is normally suggested (a dail
