Raises carbonate alkalinity (KH) with minimal impact on pH
A blend of carbonate sources that will not lower pH as competing bicarbonate only products can
Will not deplete calcium, magnesium, or strontium
Reef Builder raises carbonate alkalinity (KH) without immediately impacting on pH. With long term use there will be a tendency to stabilize at pH 8.3.
Used as directed, Reef Builder will not deplete calcium, magnesium, or strontium which usually tend to precipitate with increasing alkalinity.
Reef Builder andReef Buffermay be used together. Use Reef Builder to raise carbonate alkalinity without affecting pH. UseReef Buffer to raise carbonate alkalinity and pH.
Reef alkalinity should be maintained at 3–5 meq/L (8–14 dKH). Alkalinity should not be allowed to fall below 2 meq/L.
