Seachem live bearer/brackish aquarium salt is a chemically sound blend of salts designed to replicate the native environment of live bearers and other brackish estuary fish without adversely impacting on aquatic plants when used at regionally specific recommended dosage. The salt is also well suited for routine aquarium freshwater use. It does not impact pH or provide buffering. For low range pH control Use Acid buffer, discus buffer, South American Cichlid buffer 4. 5, or Acid regulator. Use neutral regulator, Central American Cichlid buffer or South American Cichlid buffer 7. 0 for neutral pH. For high range pH control Use alkaline regulator, alkaline buffer or Tanganyika buffer.

Seachem Alkaline Buffer raises the pH and alkalinity (KH) of your aquarium water and holds it steady between 7.2 and 8.5 - an ideal range for most freshwater environments. Alkaline Buffer is safe, gentle, and phosphate-free to reduce the risk of algae or cloudiness.
- Raises pH and increases alkalinity
- Buffers pH between 7.2 and 8.5
- Great for planted aquariums or very hard water
Seachem Alkaline Buffer is a sodium bicarbonate-based buffer. This makes it slightly less stable than phosphate buffers, but better suited for planted aquariums where adding more phosphates would lead to an algae problem.
Dosage:
300 grams (10.5 oz): Treats 860 Gallons
600 grams (1.3 lbs): Treats 1,720 Gallons
1.2 kg (2.6 lbs): Treats 3,440 Gallons
4 kg (8.8 lbs): Treats 11,640 Gallons
Directions: To increase pH, use 1 teaspoon (7g) for every 80 L (20 gallons) daily until the desired pH is reached (this dose raises alkalinity by about 1 meq/L (2.8 dKH)). For precise dosing, use the Seachem Digital Spoon Scale. In order to adjust pH gradually, use Alkaline Buffer with Acid Buffer.
FAQ:
- Q: What is the difference between Neutral Regulator, Discus Buffer, Alkaline Buffer, and Acid Buffer
A: Neutral Regulator and Discus Buffer are phosphate-based buffers providing a very strong and stable buffering system. Alkaline Buffer and Acid Buffer are non-phosphate buffers, which although less stable than a phosphate buffer, are ideal for the planted aquarium where high phosphate levels would lead to an algae problem. - Q: Is Alkaline Buffer a sodium bicarbonate

Seachem Acid Buffer is a non-phosphate buffer to lower 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.
- Lowers aquarium pH and buffers from 6.0 to 8.0
- Converts alkalinity into CO2
- For the planted aquarium or very hard water
Seachem 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. It may also be used to safely lower pH in marine water.
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.

Seachem Marine Buffer will safely raise the pH of saltwater to 8.3, and will not raise the pH above 8.3 even if overdosed. Marine Buffer is a blended product, and contains sodium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, and potassium salts to provide effective results.
- Safely raises and maintains saltwater pH to 8.3
- More stable than sodium bicarbonate or sodium bicarbonate substitutes
- Will not raise pH above 8.3 even if inadvertently overdosed
Seachem Marine Buffer is not just sodium bicarbonate or sodium carbonate (commonly sold as a substitute), as these products can raise pH to dangerous levels if not used properly. Instead it includes a variety of minerals and potassium salts of carbonate, bicarbonate, chloride, sulfate, and borate for safe, accurate dosing.
Directions: Add 5g (1 level teaspoon) for each 20 gallons (80 L). Dissolve in at least one cup of freshwater. This dose will also raise alkalinity by about 1 meq/L. Add daily until pH stabilizes at 8.3. This will take from a day to a week, depending on original pH and alkalinity. Thereafter, use biweekly or monthly to maintain a pH of 8.3. If this practice is not adequate, then overstocking, overfeeding, or other poor management practice should be sought as a likely cause. In ionically balanced marine water, Marine Buffer produces little precipitate or cloudiness. If an extensive precipitate forms upon addition of Marine Buffer that does not dissolve within about 15 minutes, then poor ionic balance was present. A water change should be initiated when convenient before further use of the product. Effectiveness improves with continued use. Do not directly mix with any calcium, magnesium, or strontium supplement.
Note: Product is sold by weight, not volume. Contents may settle in shipment.

Seachem Safe Powder is a concentrated dry conditioner for freshwater and saltwater aquariums. This concentrated conditioning powder removes chlorine and chloramine from tap water, detoxifies nitrite and nitrate, and converts ammonia into a safe, non-toxic form for more efficient removal by the biofilter.
- Removes chlorine, chloramine and ammonia from water
- Detoxifies nitrite and nitrate
- Non-acidic, highly effective dry conditioner for fresh and saltwater
Seachem Safe Powder will not impact pH levels or overactivate skimmers. It may be used during tank cycling to alleviate ammonia/nitrite toxicity, during start-up or whenever adding or replacing water.
Note: Safe is the dry version of Seachem Prime and shares all of its advantages; however, Safe is even more concentrated than Prime.
Directions for Use:
Note: These directions supersede all other prior packaging.
Directions for 10 g and 50 g:
Use 100 mg Safe (scoop) per each 100 L (25 gallons) as needed to reduce chlorine and chloramine or per 25 L (6 gallons) for ammonia.
Directions for all other sizes:
Use 1.25 g (1/4 tsp.) for every 1,250 L (300 gallons) as needed to reduce chlorine and chloramine or use 1.25 g (1/4 tsp.) for every 300 L (75 gallons) for ammonia.
May be added to aquarium directly, but better if added to new water first. If adding directly to aquarium, base dose on aquarium volume. For exceptionally high chloramine concentrations, a double dose may be used safely. To detoxify nitrite and nitrate in an emergency, up to 4 times normal dose may be used. If temperature is > 30 °C (86 °F) and chlorine or ammonia levels are low, use a half dose.
