Seachem Marine Buffer - Raises & Maintains pH to 8.3
Raises and maintains pH at 8.3 in all saltwater aquariums Can be used safely in reef tanks Contains borate for added stability Contains magnesium to alleviate precipitation effects Marine Buffer® will safely raise marine pH to 8.3. It will not raise pH above 8.3 even if inadvertently overdosed. Marine Buffer® is a blended product and is not just sodium bicarbonate or sodium carbonate, commonly sold as a substitute. Such products can raise pH to dangerous levels if not used properly. Marine Buffer® contains sodium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, and potassium salts of carbonate, bicarbonate, chloride, sulfate, and borate. Use Seachem’s MultiTest™: Marine pH & Alkalinity to check pH and total alkalinity. Use Marine Trace™ to restore the proper level of trace. Total Alkalinity is a measurement of three main ions: carbonate, bicarbonate, and borate. In saltwater, bicarbonate drives the pH toward 7.8, carbonate drives pH toward 9.1, and borate toward 9.5 or more. Because of the c
