API Water Treatment, pH Up
Description
Details
API makes aquarium treatments for the care of ornamental fish!
pH is the measure of acidic or alkaline conditions in water, where a value of 7.0 corresponds to a neutral pH, pH values about 7.0 are considered alkaline, and pH values below 7.0 are considered acidic. Different fish need different pH levels to be healthy, so it is important to test your water regularly to ensure pH levels fall where they should.
- Suitable for freshwater use.
- Lowers pH to make aquariums more acidic when levels fall too low.
- Fast-acting and colorless, so it will not cloud water.
- Phosphate-free and nitrate-free, so it will not encourage algae growth.
Instructions for Use
Determine the pH of aquarium water with an API pH TEST KIT. To lower pH, add 1 ml. for each 10 gallons of aquarium water. Take another pH reading before adding another dose of pH DOWN pH adjuster. Some fish may be sensitive to pH adjustments greater than 0.2 in a 24 hour period, so changes of this magnitude should be done with extreme care.
