Description
Increase pH in aquarium and fish tank.
To adapt the pH value to the needs of the fish and invertebrates in fresh and saltwater aquariums.
Rapid raising of the pH value and stabilisation through increase of the carbonate hardness.
Use in freshwater: can be used as often as needed to raise the carbonate hardness in too soft water to the desired value. Maximal increase of the pH value to 8.5.
Use in saltwater: adjusts the carbonate hardness to the natural ocean value of 10 to 12 °d KH and thus adjusts the required pH value of 8.0 to 8.4.
Contents: 1 bottle pH/KH increaser.
To use: 10 ml/40 l water. Results into an increase of approximately 1° dKH.

| Nature at Home – Home for Fish and Plants | Fish and plants need to be as comfortable in the aquarium as they are in nature., Water dwellers have adapted to the acidity (pH value) of their habitat and also need to find similar conditions in the aquarium., The wrong pH value not only means stress for the aquarium dwellers but it also can be the cause for diseases or it can reduce their lifespan., The JBL water conditioners decrease or increase the pH level and make the water ideally suited to the requirements of the fish once more. |

JBL pH Plus for Raising pH and KH in SG Tanks
Some Singapore keepers run into low or unstable pH, especially in tanks with lots of driftwood, peat or catappa leaves that leach tannins and acids. JBL pH Plus raises pH by increasing carbonate hardness, which is the right approach because it adds the buffering that actually holds a higher reading in place rather than just nudging the number temporarily. It works in both freshwater and saltwater aquariums.
For African Rift Lake cichlids like mbuna, which want hard, alkaline water unlike our soft tap supply, this is a useful tool to push KH and pH up towards their preferred range. In marine tanks it helps bring carbonate hardness towards the natural ocean value. Dose gradually and re-test, since a stable, well-buffered tank protects livestock far better than a tank you keep yo-yoing up and down chasing a target.
Understand the buffering first with our KH and GH explainer, and for Rift Lake setups see the African cichlid tank guide. Browse more in our conditioners and medication range.
