Discus Buffer
Product Description Discus BufferTM helps to replicate the ideal Discus environment (low pH & low GH (General Hardness)). Discus BufferTM will lower pH and keep it lowered. Discus BufferTM also softens water by precipitating calcium and magnesium. Use Discus TraceTM to restore the proper level of trace elements required by thriving, healthy Discus.
Neutral RegulatorTM and Discus BufferTM can be used in combination to achieve a desired pH when performing water changes or adding top off water. The ratio chart below is designed for r/o water where there is generally no buffering capacity.

Directions
Use 1 level teaspoon (7 g) for every 40-80 L (10-20 gallons*) daily until intended pH is reached. Thereafter, use once a month or with water changes as required to maintain pH. To raise pH, use Neutral RegulatorTM. To target a particular pH use in combination with Neutral RegulatorTM following the chart below. This chart assumes the use of unbuffered water (RO or DI). If water is already buffered use the chart as a starting guide. Use Prime® to dechlorinate tap water before doing a water change.
