Review on Seachem Neutral Regulator 1 Kilo by Stacy Sanders

Like all Seachem products, this works very well. If you need a pH of 7.0 for a variety of FW (freshwater) fish, this is for you. What I like about it is that it also treats your water (removes chlorine and chloramines and detoxifies ammonia). So if you use this product after a water change, for example, you don't need to add your regular water conditioner as well. . Please note with this product: 1. It gradually adjusts the pH value. Any change in pH above 0.2 throughout the day can be very stressful for your fish, so bringing the pH down to 7.0 can take several days of daily use. If your water has a pH of 5.5 or 6.0, you won't get 7.0 with one dose of this! Use it every day until you get there.2. It also increases KH (carbonate hardness/alkalinity/buffering capacity) when used. The more you use it, the higher your KH will be. So you can play around with this product to get your desired pH and KH levels for a specific fish (we have 55 gallons with tetras so we can get pH 6.6 with KH 2-4 degrees without this product a lot We check the carbs to let us know when to add another dose). When KH is low, pH usually goes down as well.3. This is a phosphate buffer. This is good in terms of buffer strength, but not recommended for aquariums with live plants. Try a carbonate buffer instead. Overall, this is the best pH 7.0 regulator and buffer I have found for most FW systems.
