Description
Description:
Restores and maintains mineral balance and GH
Does not contain sodium or chloride like competing products
Ideally suited for use with RO or DI water or any mineral deficient water
Plants use minerals from the soil to build the complex molecules they need to survive and grow. Poor plant growth may be due to a deficiency of one or more minerals.
Seachem Equilibrium ™ is specifically designed to establish the ideal mineral content for the planted aquarium. It contains no Sodium Chloride as both Sodium and Chloride are elements which do not quickly deplete in an aquarium , chloride can in fact do more harm than good . Some products on the market use a high % of Sodium Chloride ( salt) in their mixes as it is cheap .
Seachem Equilibrium is ideally suited to RO water ( reverse Osmosis) or DO ( deionized ) water .
Seachem Equilibrium™ raises the essential mineral/electrolyte content (General Hardness) of the water to balance with and promote stability of the carbonate hardness. To maintain KH, we recommend Alkaline Buffer™.
SEachem Equilibrium™ contains only calcium, magnesium, and potassium salts, which aid in fish metabolism, but are also highly beneficial to plant growth.
To raise mineral content/general hardness (GH) by 1 meq/L (3 dH), add 16 g (1 tablespoon) for every 80 L when setting up an aquarium or when making water changes (add to new water).
For the best solubility we recommend mixing with 1 L (1 qt.) of water (the resulting mixture will have a white opaque appearance). When this mixture is added to the aquarium it will impart a slight haze that should clear within 15–30 minutes.
HINTS: Do not use Equilibrium™ when replacing evaporated water. This dose is based on DI or RO water; for other water, measure hardness (GH) first, then add according to need. For precise dosing, use the Seachem Digital Spoon Scale.
