Cichlid Lake Salt, 500 g / 1.1 lbs

Cichlid Lake Salt, 500 g / 1.1 lbs
- Replicates the environment of African Cichlids
- Contains proper amounts of calcium, magnesium, sodium, and potassium
- Affects hardness only, not alkalinity or pH
Cichlid Lake Saltâ„¢ is a chemically sound blend of salts designed to replicate the natural environment of Rift Lake African Cichlids. It contains all physiologically essential elements such as magnesium, calcium, sodium, potassium, and includes trace components such as iron, aluminum, and iodide.

Although the major Rift Lakes contain basically the same mineral salts, they do so in greatly differing concentrations. Cichlid Lake Saltâ„¢ is formulated so that dosages vary depending on the lake of origin and need only be added when setting up an aquarium or with water changes. Many competing products are little more than combinations of Epsom salt and bicarbonate of soda. This will not provide a complete replication of the mineral salts that are contained in the lakes of Africa, in particular calcium and potassium. Seachemâ€™s Tanganyika Bufferâ„¢ (pH 9.0â€“9.4) and Malawi/Victoria Bufferâ„¢ (pH 7.8â€“8.4) should be used to adjust carbonate hardness and pH.
