All Saltwater Environments | Safely Raises pH Without Promoting Algae
Step 1 – Environmental Parameters™
Reef Essential® pH Up (Saltwater) is scientifically formulated to safely increase pH without promoting algae. A pH of ~8.3 is important for the functioning of all marine/reef aquariums, often this level is not achieved, causing stress to your aquarium’s inhabitants. Fish & other aerobic organisms respire producing carbon dioxide and absorbing oxygen. Dosing with Reef Essential® pH Up will help to increase and stabilise pH within your aquarium. Although Reef Essential® pH Up is an effective method of treating pH temporarily, we recommend getting to the source of your pH issues. Possible causes of low pH include too many fish, low amounts of fresh air being introduced to the aquarium, insufficient water flow and lack of alkalinity.

20 drops per 10L or 2.6 US gal will raise pH by ~0.1. The dose required may vary due to the environment of your aquarium.
