Seachem Liquid Marine Buffer is a convenient, pre-dissolved version of the industry-leading Marine Buffer powder. It is specifically engineered to raise and maintain the pH of saltwater aquariums to a stable 8.3 while simultaneously boosting carbonate alkalinity. Unlike competing products that use simple bicarbonate, Liquid Marine Buffer features a sophisticated multi-salt blend that prevents pH overshooting, even if accidentally overdosed.
This liquid formulation offers the same professional-grade chemistry as the original powder with the ease of instant dosing.
Automatic pH Cap: Uniquely formulated to lock the pH at 8.3; it will not rise above this level, ensuring a safe environment for your fish.
Instant Dissolution: As a liquid, it mixes immediately with aquarium water, eliminating the need for pre-mixing and preventing "undissolved powder" issues.
Borate Buffering System: Includes borate salts to provide a secondary layer of protection against pH "crashes" caused by organic acid buildup.
Balanced Ionic Profile: Contains a precise ratio of sodium, magnesium, calcium, and potassium salts to maintain the natural mineral balance of seawater.
Safe for Marine Fish: Ideal for fish-only and FOWLR (Fish Only With Live Rock) systems where maintaining a steady 8.3 pH is critical for health.
How do I dose Liquid Marine Buffer? The standard dose is 5 mL (1 capful) for every 40 L (10 US gallons). You should dose daily until your target pH of 8.3 is reached, then use weekly or monthly to maintain stability.
Is this the same as Reef Buffer? No. Liquid Marine Buffer is designed to lock at 8.3 and is best for fish-focused tanks. If you have a reef tank with very high organic loads and heavy coral growth, Seachem Reef Buffer may be required to reach 8.3 effectively.
Can I use this in freshwater? No. This product is strictly for marine/saltwater use. For freshwater pH adjustment, use Seachem Neutral Regulator or Alkaline Buffer.
Seachem Marine Trace: Replenish the essential trace elements that are depleted alongside your buffer during the fish's metabolic processes.

Seachem MultiTest Marine pH & Alkalinity: A high-precision test kit specifically designed to monitor the parameters managed by Liquid Marine Buffer.
Seachem CupriSorb: Keep this on hand to remove any heavy metals that might enter your system via source water and interfere with your buffer's effectiveness.
