Aquavital KH-Plus caps – 40 pcs

Aquavital KH-Plus caps increases the carbonate hardness in freshwater and saltwater aquariums

AQUAVITAL KH-PLUS-CAPS are designed to enhance the carbonate hardness in both freshwater and saltwater aquariums in a straightforward and gentle manner. This increase in carbonate hardness is essential as it helps to stabilize the pH value, preventing sudden fluctuations.

Adding the capsules to your aquarium is a breeze. Each capsule is capable of raising the carbonate hardness of 40 liters of aquarium water by 1 °dKH.

Maintaining water quality is crucial for the biological balance and overall health of your ornamental fish. Therefore, it is important to periodically check the water parameters and make necessary adjustments.

The carbonate hardness serves as an indicator of the water’s pH buffer capacity, helping to stabilize the pH value. When carbonate hardness is low, the pH value becomes unstable and can change rapidly. For most aquariums or garden ponds, the ideal carbonate hardness range is between 4 and 8 °dKH, which effectively minimizes drastic changes in pH levels.

It is interesting to note that pH values operate on a logarithmic scale. A change of one unit in pH represents a tenfold difference. For example, water with a pH value of 6 is ten times more acidic than water with a pH of 7. Therefore, it is essential to avoid significant shifts in pH values.

To achieve the optimal carbonate hardness for most freshwater aquariums, simply scan the QR code and use the online dosage calculator to find the correct amount to add.
