Description

Seachem Alkaline Regulator 50g — Alkaline pH Buffer & Dechlorinator for Small Aquariums

Seachem Alkaline Regulator 50g (SKU: 725040-94) is a dry buffer formulated to raise pH, increase alkalinity, and neutralise tap water disinfectants in small freshwater aquariums. It adjusts pH into the alkaline range (7.1 to 8.5) while building carbonate hardness to prevent acidic pH drops.

Seachem Alkaline Regulator is designed to raise and stabilise pH in freshwater aquariums, creating ideal conditions for fish species that thrive in alkaline water. It buffers water chemistry to help prevent sudden pH fluctuations that can stress or harm aquatic life.

This product is commonly used in aquariums housing African cichlids, livebearers, and other alkaline-water species. Dose daily until you reach the desired pH for controlled, gradual adjustment.

Alkaline Regulator also neutralises chlorine, chloramines, and toxic ammonia found in tap water. When paired with Seachem Neutral Regulator, it allows aquarists to dial in specific pH targets for alkaline-loving species.

Usage & Application

When to Use

• Alkaline Community Tanks: Ideal for livebearers, rainbowfish, and hard-water cichlids requiring a pH above 7.0.

• Tap Water Preparation: Used during water changes to raise low pH and condition tap water.

Dosage & Application Guide

• Add 5 g (1 level teaspoon) per 40–80 L (10–20 US gallons) daily until the target pH is reached (Can be used daily until the desired pH is reached).

• Dissolve powder in fresh replacement water before pouring into the tank. Always monitor water pH consistently using a reliable test kit.
