Acid Buffer is a non-phosphate buffer that lowers pH and buffer with Alkaline Buffer. Both buffers are designed for the planted aquarium or for very hard water, where phosphate buffers may pose an algae or cloudiness problem. Acid buffer lowers pH and buffers between 5.0 and 8.0 when used with Alkaline Buffer. As Acid Buffer lowers pH it converts carbonate alkalinity (kH) into available CO2. Treats up to 3,000 gallons of water.

To lower pH - use 1/4 teaspoon to every 20 gallons of water daily until intended pH is reached (this dose lower alkalinity by about 0.2 meg/L(0.6dkh). Best if added directly to aquarium.
