Fritz Rift Lake Cichlid Buffer

Fritz Rift Lake Cichlid Buffer – pH & KH Booster for African Cichlids

Fritz Rift Lake Cichlid Buffer is a specialized carbonate salt blend crafted to recreate the mineral-rich environments of African Rift Lakes. It boosts carbonate hardness (KH) and pH to species-appropriate levels for Malawi, Victoria, and Tanganyika cichlids, promoting vibrant coloration, healthy growth, and breeding success.

Features & Benefits

• Multi-lake formula: Acid-neutralizing carbonates to maintain optimal pH & KH.
• Supports biotope accuracy: Maintains pH 7.8–8.4 for Malawi/Victoria and pH 9.0–9.4 for Tanganyika when used correctly :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}.
• Enhances fish health & color: Ideal alkalinity supports cichlid vitality, growth, and breeding readiness.
• Cost-effective powder: Long-lasting and economical compared to pre-mixed liquids.
• Combine with Rift Lake Salt: Use alongside Fritz Rift Lake Cichlid Salt for full water chemistry optimization :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}.

Dosage Instructions

• Use per 10 US gal (37.85 L):
• Tanganyika: 5 g (approx. 1 tsp)
• Malawi/Victoria: 2.5 g (approx. ½ tsp)
• Add daily until desired pH/KH achieved, then re-dose every 2–3 weeks to maintain levels :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}.
• Pre-dissolve in RO/DI or dechlorinated water before adding to tank for best results.
• Limit pH changes to ≤0.2 units per day to avoid stress :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}.
