About this item
pH is the measure of acidity of water, on a scale ranging from 0 to 14. A pH of 0 is the most acidic, while a pH of 14 is the most alkaline. Different geographies have different tap water conditions with different pH levels, while fish require a specific pH level to thrive. A pH of 7.0 is ideal when keeping a community aquarium containing a variety of tropical fish. Goldfish and livebearers prefer a pH of 7.5. Many Amazonian fish, like angelfish and neon tetras, prefer a pH of 6.5 to 6.8. Mollies and swordtails thrive at pH 7.2 to 7.5. API pH DOWN Freshwater Aquarium Water pH Reducing Solution lowers aquarium pH in freshwater aquariums to desired level. Safe for fish and plants. Use when setting up a new aquarium, adjusting pH, or changing water. pH in an aquarium can fluctuate due to fish waste, uneaten food and addition of tap water. It is recommended to test water for pH weekly. With API Aquarium products, it’s easy to keep a beautiful saltwater, freshwater or reef aquarium.

| Directions | Determine the pH of aquarium water with an API pH TEST KIT. To lower pH, add 2 drops per U.S. gallon (3.8 L) of aquarium water. Take another pH reading before adding another dose. Note that some fish may be sensitive to pH adjustments greater than .2 in a 24 hour period, so changes of this magnitude she be executed with extreme care. Use the API pH TEST KIT weekly to accurately monitor pH. Then, when necessary, use pH DOWN to reduce pH levels in your aquarium. Tip: Some water is high in mineral ions, such as carbonate and bicarbonate, which strongly buffer aquarium water and can resist a pH change or cause “pH rebound.” In these situations, repeated dosing may be necessary to lower pH. |
