Aqua-pics Kh+7.0 Buffer 800g

Description

Aqua-pics Kh+7.0 Buffer 800g — Multi-tank neutral buffer sized for regular bulk dosing

A keeper managing several freshwater tanks on the same water-change day needs enough buffer on the shelf to dose all of them without running short partway through, which is where retail-size packs start to fall short. Aqua-pics Kh+7.0 Buffer 800g (SKU: 100926) is the 800 g size of Aqua-Pics’ neutral buffer, raising carbonate hardness (KH), adjusting pH up or down as required, and locking it at around 7.0 across every tank it treats. Addressing KH directly rather than only shifting pH reduces the stressful, damaging fluctuation that a pH-only product cannot prevent, supporting fish health and longer life across a multi-tank set-up. The formula contains chemically clean phosphates, which Aqua-Pics states are selected so as not to add meaningfully to algae growth, and 800 g is built for a keeper with three or more tanks, or one larger system that uses a full dose each time.

The dose is unchanged from the smaller packs: one level teaspoon, about 5 g, per 10 L of aquarium water, raising KH by roughly 8 dKH (143 ppm) and stabilising pH near 7.0 per application. An 800 g pack holds about 160 of those doses, equivalent to roughly 1,600 L of treated water, enough to carry a multi-tank set-up through an extended stretch of regular water changes without reordering. As a general-purpose neutral buffer rather than the goldfish-specific product in the range, it suits mixed community and tropical collections where a stable mid pH is the target. The line continues down to a 120 g trial pot and up through 2 kg, 4 kg, 8 kg and 16 kg bulk sizes for larger operations.

Usage & Application

When to Use

• Multi-tank routines: Several freshwater tanks buffered on the same water-change day.
• Larger single systems: Tanks that use a full dose on every application.
• Reducing reorder frequency: A size built to last longer than repeated small-pack purchases.
• Consistent water chemistry: Keeping pH matched across several tanks sharing equipment or fish.

Dosing & Administration Guide

• Weigh for consistency: Use a kitchen scale for repeat batches across multiple tanks.
• Dissolve before dosing: Mix the measured amount into a container of tank water first.
• Dose per tank, not per room: Calculate each tank’s volume separately before adding buffer.
• Test regularly: Check KH and pH in each tank rather than assuming uniform results.
