Seachem Cichlid Trace 4L — Bulk Trace Element Conditioner To Replicate East African Rift Lakes Waters for African Cichlid Species In Large Tanks

Seachem Cichlid Trace 4L (SKU: 724887-709) is a bulk trace element supplement formulated specifically to replicate the natural water chemistry of the East African Rift Lakes (Malawi, Tanganyika, and Victoria). Cichlids actively absorb trace minerals from their environment for bone growth, neurological health, and metabolic regulation. Because municipal tap water and synthetic salts often lack complete trace profiles, routine supplementation is necessary to maintain long-term fish health.

Cichlid Trace contains no heavy metals, sodium, or buffers that unintentionally alter general hardness (GH) or carbonate hardness (KH). Instead, it focuses purely on bioavailable trace elements like calcium, magnesium, iodide, iron, and manganese. The 4-litre container is engineered for commercial breeders, rift lake specialty stores, and large multi-tank cichlid installations.

• Large Rift Lake Aquariums: Essential for maintaining metabolic health in African Cichlid display tanks.
