🐠 Seachem Cichlid Lake Salt - 250g / 8.8oz - Enhance Cichlid Habitat Review

It seems to have arrived a day early. This salt is exactly what you need in a cichlid aquarium. Even if you use an African cichlid sand mix to help maintain the pH, depending on which lake your cichlids come from, this salt will raise the pH to the right level for your aquarium.

A must for growing GH in cichlid aquariums. Doesn't deplete as quickly in my tank as some of the other buffs I've used. I use for my Tanganyika cichlids.

This item came with the lid already unscrewed and everything was spilled. White powder drips out of the box with my name on it! I got arrested and my house was torn apart by the FBI and the engineers blocked the street. So my message to the seller is: Please tighten the lid and maybe even tape it off, because looking for a cavity sucks! Okay, that was a…

Great product, I have frontosa, mbuna and peacock cichlids and spotted catfish and all my tank mates are healthy and happy. I've been using this with every water change for over a year with no problems and no cloudiness. I always add salt to the nasal filter so it dissolves slowly and doesn't irritate the fish. I recommend using this product if you are serious about the welfare of your cichlids. This is especially useful if your tap water in your area doesn't have a high pH, as cichlids prefer…
