Aquaforest KH Buffer is a powdered supplement that keeps carbonate hardness (alkalinity) steady in reef aquariums. You dissolve it in RODI water to make your own dosing solution, which makes it a very cost-effective choice for tanks that use a lot of alkalinity.
The right KH level keeps your pH stable and helps corals build their skeletons. A sudden drop in carbonates can even stop nitrification completely, so steady alkalinity is key to a healthy reef. KH Buffer dissolves quickly and can also be added directly for a one-off KH boost.
Available in: 1200g and 5000g
Suitable for:
- Reef aquariums of all sizes
- Soft coral, LPS and SPS systems
- Balling method and daily dosing routines
- Manual dosing or dosing pumps

USAGE
- To make the solution, dissolve 80g of KH Buffer in 1000ml of RODI water
- 20ml of solution raises KH by about 0.5 dKH in 100L (27 US gal) of water
- For a one-off boost, 10g of powder raises KH by about 3.3 dKH in 100L
- Test your water before dosing and base the dose on how much your corals use each day
- Keep KH at 6.5 to 8.5 dKH
- Don't raise KH by more than 0.5 dKH per day
- Add it slowly to a high-flow area of the tank

Quarantine
UNPARALLEDED QUARANTINE PROCESS
Our comprehensive quarantine process utilizes a powerful combination of copper, prazi, formalin, and antibiotics to tackle even the most stubborn diseases. This rigorous treatment ensures our fish are free from common ailments like Ich, Velvet, Blackspot, Brooklyenella, Flukes, Tapeworm, Uronema, and Vibrio, which other treatments like TTM and hypo may not cover.
Fish are fed 3x a day and will be transferred to a sterile system with UV for their remaining stay.
Tangs are treated more strictly with quarantine and will hold any fish for longer if symptoms are still displayed.
2 WEEKS
Two weeks is just a minimum, you are welcome to quarantine further if you wish. As most of the work is already done for you, rest assured that the fish received from REEF HAVEN AQUARIUM are very healthy.
PLEASE NOTE: We DO NOT guarantee 100% parasite free fish. We still recommend that you quarantine regardless, but the time taken to do so may be a lot less than usual. If you purchase fish that have not been quarantined, they may still be a carrier for parasites. Parasites can lay dormant in your tank until a new stressed fish is introduced. Corals & inverts may also introduce disease if coming from parasite infested waters. Natural sea water WILL introduce parasites.
ERROR-FREE MEDICATION
Our medication process is handled by a single expert, Hazel, guaranteeing zero room for error. This personalized care ensures our fish receive the precise treatment they need, without the risk of human error that can occur with multiple handlers.
HEALTH STANDARD, NOT EXTRA COST
At REEF HAVEN AQUARIUM, we believe healthy fish should be the norm, not an added expense. That's why we incorporate our quarantine service as a standard health practice for all our fish, at no extra cost to you.
