Product details
Seachem Alkaline Buffer 70g (234) is a non-phosphate buffering additive designed to raise pH and increase alkalinity (KH) in freshwater aquariums. It helps stabilize water chemistry in systems where you want to buffer toward an alkaline range, supporting conditions commonly used in planted aquariums and in tanks with very hard water. This buffer works as part of Seachem’s buffer system with Acid Buffer™ to help manage pH swings while maintaining an appropriate carbonate/bicarbonate balance.
Features:
- Non–phosphate buffer to help avoid phosphate-based buffering concerns
- Raises pH and increases alkalinity (KH) for more stable carbonate buffering
- Helps buffer water with an alkaline target range of 7.2 to 8.5
- Designed for planted aquariums and can be suitable for very hard water setups
- Uses a carbonate/bicarbonate based approach (as described for Alkaline Buffer™)
- Intended to be gentler and safe for freshwater environments as a buffering additive
- Pairs with Acid Buffer™ as part of the buffer system for balancing pH management
