Seachem Dry Tanganyika Buffer 500g

Product details

Seachem Dry Tanganyika Buffer 500g (283) is a carbonate-salt blend made to help aquarists replicate Tanganyika-style water chemistry for cichlids. In practical terms, it raises and stabilizes alkalinity and carbonate hardness while buffering pH toward the Tanganyikan range. This product is intended for use when you want more consistent, chemistry-driven conditions rather than relying on frequent small water changes alone.

Features:

• Raises pH and increases alkalinity for Tanganyika-style water conditions
• Designed to boost carbonate hardness (KH) and overall buffer capacity
• Helps maintain a stable target pH range of 9.0–9.4
• Will not affect GH, supporting separation of hardness adjustments
