Seachem Malawi/Victoria Buffer – pH & KH Conditioner for African Cichlids (300g)

Seachem Malawi/Victoria Buffer – pH & KH Conditioner for African Cichlids (300g)

Seachem Malawi/Victoria Buffer is a scientifically formulated blend of carbonate salts designed to replicate the natural water chemistry of Africa’s Lake Malawi and Lake Victoria. It raises and stabilizes pH and carbonate hardness (KH), creating an ideal environment for cichlids from these regions.

This buffer is phosphate-free and will not affect general hardness (GH), making it safe for use in planted tanks and with sensitive species. It is best used in combination with Seachem Cichlid Lake Salt™ and Cichlid Trace™ for full-spectrum mineral support.

Key Features:

• Buffers pH to 7.8–8.4 – ideal for Malawi and Victoria biotopes
• Raises KH (carbonate hardness) to stabilize pH
• Does not affect GH – safe for plants and inverts
• Phosphate-free – will not promote algae
• Use during setup, water changes, or as needed
