Our NatureHolic Saltea KH+ is a special hardening salt for the targeted increase of carbonate hardness and thus the acid-binding capacity in aquarium water. The KH+ salt is ideal for aquarium water with insufficient carbonate hardness, which acts as a buffer for the pH value.
A carbonate hardness (KH) below 3 °dKH can lead to an acid crash if no other buffering systems are available in the aquarium. This is where our NatureHolic Saltea KH+ comes in. The optimal carbonate hardness for most aquariums is at least 5 °dKH and a conductivity of 400 +/- 50 µS/cm.
In combination with our NatureHolic Saltea GH+ (please order separately), you can achieve virtually any water parameters related to GH and KH by remineralizing reverse osmosis water, distilled water, demineralized water, or rainwater. Because the chloride present in many remineralizing salts is potentially harmful to aquarium plants and invertebrates, we have significantly reduced the chloride content in our formula – NatureHolic Saltea KH+ remineralizing salt contains up to 80% less chloride than comparable competitor products.
Our special salt NatureHolic Saltea KH+ dissolves particularly quickly and is a hardening salt for increasing the carbonate hardness, or acid-neutralizing capacity, of aquarium water. It enriches the water with important minerals and trace elements and is used for remineralizing reverse osmosis or distilled water. NH Salt KH+ raises the carbonate hardness (KH). Naturally resembling this water can promote plant growth and the well-being of aquarium inhabitants. Raising the carbonate hardness to at least 5 °dKH buffers the pH value, prevents pH fluctuations, and effectively prevents an acid crash.
Instructions for use: Stir the remineralizing salt into the fresh water for water changes outside of the aquarium. Add any undissolved particles back into the aquarium. Reseal the container tightly after each use.
| Function: | Chloride-reduced remineralizing salt for reverse osmosis water, water from demineralizers, filtered rainwater and other soft water. |
| Purpose: | It only increases the carbonate hardness or the acid-binding capacity of the aquarium water. |
| Dosage: | 10 g per 100 l increases the carbonate hardness by 3.33 °dKH and the conductivity by approximately 115 µS/cm. One level teaspoon corresponds to approximately 5 g. |
