Additional Details ------------------------------ Directions: To lower pH, use 1/4 teaspoon (2g) for every 80 L (20 US gallons) daily until desired pH is reached (this dose lowers alkalinity by about 0.2 meq/L (0.6 dKH)). Larger doses may be required in very hard (KH) or alkaline waters. For precise dosing, use the Seachem Digital Spoon Scale. In order to adjust pH gradually, or if water is soft or not well buffered, use Acid Buffer? with Alkaline Buffer?. When using Alkaline Buffer? Acid Buffer? together to target a specific pH, utilize the suggested ratio chart. HINT: First determine the amount of Alkaline Buffer? needed for the volume of water. This should be determined based upon your desired alkalinity (KH). Then, divide by the number in the middle column to obtain the correct amount of Acid Buffer? required.
