    Salinity -marine aquarium salt mix

    Salinity -marine aquarium salt mix Salinity 2.7 kg is a marine aquarium salt mix - a specially formulated blend of salts designed to recreate natural seawater chemistry for saltwater (marine/reef) aquariums. It contains all the major minerals, trace elements and ionic balance you’d find in ocean water, but without any toxic or unnecessary components.  Preparing saltwater for marine tanks - before you add it to your aquarium you dissolve it in purified or dechlorinated water to reach the correct salinity (typically around 35 ppt or specific gravity ~1.026). Suitable for reef tanks, fish‑only marine systems, and invertebrates, giving a stable base for healthy water chemistry. Why 2.7 kg Matters A 2.7 kg bucket of Salinity salt makes a useful amount of prepared saltwater (often around 75 L at 35 ppt depending on mixing). It’s one of the more concentrated salt mixes, meaning you get a bit more usable saltwater per kilogram compared with some other brands.  How It Works Mix with purified/RO water - never add dry salt directly to an aquarium with livestock. Stir until fully dissolved. Measure salinity with a refractometer or hydrometer and adjust if needed before adding to your tank. Quick Notes This isn’t just table salt - it’s balanced for aquarium chemistry. It supports stable salinity and essential mineral presence in marine systems. How much salt you add depends on your target salinity and water volume.

    Cichlid Lake Salt 4kg

    Cichlid Lake Salt Cichlid Lake Salt is a specialised blend of mineral salts formulated to replicate the natural water conditions of African Rift Lakes where many cichlids come from. It’s made to provide essential minerals without harmful additives often found in generic aquarium salts. Why It’s Used Adds essential minerals like magnesium, calcium, potassium, and sodium, plus trace elements like iron and iodide — all important for fish health. Helps mimic the hard, mineral-rich water cichlids evolved in, which can reduce stress and support health. Unlike some other salts, it’s not just Epsom salt or baking soda—it’s specifically balanced for cichlid needs. How It’s Used You add it when: Setting up a new tank Doing water changes (to maintain mineral levels)It’s not for replacing evaporated water. Dosage (per ~40 L of water): Tanganyika cichlids: ~11 g (about 1.5 tsp) Malawi cichlids: ~5.5 g (¾ tsp) Victoria cichlids: ~3.6 g (½ tsp)These amounts help adjust general hardness (GH) closer to natural levels.  Important Notes It adjusts hardness but doesn’t buffer pH so you might need a separate buffer if you want to hit specific pH target. Best dissolved in freshwater before adding to your tank. Great for hobbyists keeping African cichlids (e.g., Malawi, Tanganyika, Victoria species) who want water chemistry closer to their natural habitats.

  • Last stock! Tanganyika Buffer 4kg-PH Stabilizer

    Tanganyika Buffer 4kg-PH Stabilizer

    Tanganyika Buffer 4kg-PH Stabilizer  Tanganyika Buffer is a carbonate salt blend made to raise and stabilise pH, increase carbonate hardness (KH), and boost buffering capacity in freshwater aquariums — especially for African cichlid setups based on Lake Tanganyika water conditions. It helps replicate the very alkaline, stable environment these fish prefer. Why Use Tanganyika Buffer? In the wild, Lake Tanganyika has: High pH (~9.0–9.4) Strong alkalinity (buffering)Tanganyika Buffer aims to safely recreate similar conditions so your fish stay healthy and stress-free. It’s especially useful if your source water is softer/lower pH than what cichlids are adapted to. What It Does   ✔ Increases KH (carbonate hardness) — which helps keep pH stable over time.✔ Boosts buffer capacity — meaning water is less likely to swing wildly in pH.✔ Does not significantly change general hardness (GH).  How to Use It Initial adjustment:Use about 5 g per 40–80 L (10–20 US gallons) daily until your desired pH is reached and stable. Maintenance dosing:Once stable, you usually only need to add it every 2–3 weeks or with water changes to maintain pH. Pro tip:It’s best to dissolve the buffer in freshwater first, and add it after adding any salts (e.g., cichlid lake salt).  Best For Lake Tanganyika biotope aquariums African cichlids that thrive in high pH/alkaline water Water that tends to be soft or runs low in natural buffering Caution Raising pH too fast Always test pH and KH regularly — don’t rely on guesswork alone.
