Biotope KH plus Tropical Fish

Introduction

Biotope KH Plus is a specialized supplement designed to raise and stabilize carbonate hardness (KH) in tropical freshwater aquariums. Maintaining stable KH levels is essential for buffering pH fluctuations that can stress or harm fish and plants. This product is ideal for hobbyists aiming to create a stable, healthy environment for delicate tropical species by ensuring optimal water quality and pH stability.

Features

• Raises and Stabilizes KH – Effectively increases carbonate hardness to prevent rapid pH drops

• Buffering Capacity – Maintains consistent pH levels by acting as a reliable buffer

• Supports Tropical Fish Health – Reduces pH swings, offering a stable environment especially important for sensitive fish and plants

• Easy to Use – Simple to dose and dissolve, making regular maintenance hassle-free

• Safe for Fish and Plants – Formulated to be gentle on all tropical fish species and aquarium plants

• Ideal for Soft Water – Perfect for aquariums with naturally soft or low-mineral water that requires KH supplementation

Usage

• For Regular KH Adjustment: Dissolve 1.5 g of Biotope KH Plus in 10 liters (2.6 gallons) of aquarium water to raise KH by 1° dKH. Adjust dosage gradually based on your aquarium’s needs and monitor water parameters.

• For Maintaining KH Levels: Regularly test and adjust KH after water changes or if fluctuations occur, ensuring stable pH.

• For New Aquariums: Use during initial setup in soft water tanks to establish appropriate KH levels. Test frequently during early stages.

• For Established Aquariums: Maintain consistent KH in tanks with high bioloads, frequent water changes, or sensitive species by regular supplementation.

Available Size

• 700 g – Suitable for larger tanks or frequent KH supplementation, providing a long-lasting supply.

Recommendations

• Regular Monitoring: Regularly check KH and pH levels, especially when adjusting water chemistry or using other supplements.

• Pair with pH Adjusters: Combine with pH stabilizers or buffers for precise water chemistry control.

• Ideal for Soft Water: Essential for aquariums with soft or low-mineral water where KH is naturally low.

• Gradual Dosing: Increase KH gradually to avoid stressing fish; sudden changes can be harmful.

• Maintain Overall Water Quality: Monitor other parameters such as nitrates, calcium, and magnesium to support a healthy aquatic environment.
