Product details
Cichlid Lake Salt – SeaChem is a chemically sound blend of salts formulated to help replicate mineral conditions associated with Rift Lake African cichlids. Rather than being a simple mix of common salts, it is designed to supply major and trace elements commonly used in aquarium water chemistry, supporting practical setup and ongoing maintenance. Use it when setting up a tank or during water changes to adjust mineral availability while you manage region-specific pH and carbonate hardness with SeaChem buffering products.
Features:
- Designed for Rift Lake African cichlid aquariums (general Tanganyika, Malawi, and Victoria mineral profiles)
- Provides major elements including magnesium, calcium, sodium, and potassium
- Includes trace components such as iron, aluminum, and iodide
- Dosage depends on the lake of origin and is intended for use during setup and/or with water changes
- Appropriate alongside SeaChem buffer systems to help reach target carbonate hardness and pH for the chosen lake type
