Aqua-Alkal PH Plus – raising PH
AQUA-ALKAL pH PLUS preparation for raising the aquarium water pH value. Preparation for raising the aquarium water pH value in common and breeding tanks. Alkaline water is typical for many biotopes inhabited by popular aquarium fish, e.g.: Malawi cichlids of the mbuna group, tropheus from Lake Tanganyika, cichlids from Central America etc. Maintaining high pH level is obligatory in case of many species of fish. It helps keep them in good health and condition, intensifies their coloration, allows them to spawn and lay eggs.
AQUA-ALKAL pH PLUS prevents drops of water pH value, which are the result of natural processes taking place in the tank. Applying the preparation directly into the tank, it is recommended to monitor pH levels with a proper aquarium test. Daily pH changes should not be higher than 0,2 pH. Note that the safest solution is preparing the water intended for change outside the tank and then gradually adding it to the aquarium.
Together with this preparation we recommend: Test 6in1, Test pH 4,5-9,5, Test pH 6,0-7,8, Test GH/KH

The pH value of fish tank water can vary depending on various factors, including the source water (such as tap water or well water)
Here are some general guidelines for freshwater aquarium pH levels:
- Acidic pH (Below 7.0): Some fish species, such as tetras, barbs, and rasboras, originate from naturally acidic waters and may thrive in aquariums with a pH below 7.0. Acidic pH levels can also benefit certain plants, such as Amazon sword plants and Java ferns. However, extreme acidity can be harmful to some fish species and may require buffering or pH adjustment.
- Neutral pH (Around 7.0): A pH level of 7.0 is considered neutral and is suitable for many freshwater fish species, including livebearers, rainbowfish, and some cichlids. Neutral pH levels are generally well-tolerated by most aquarium plants and provide a stable environment for fish health and growth.
- Alkaline pH (Above 7.0): Some fish species, such as livebearers, African cichlids, and certain catfish, prefer alkaline water with a pH above 7.0. Alkaline pH levels can also promote the growth of certain calcareous plants, such as Vallisneria and Elodea. However, extremely high pH levels can lead to problems like mineral precipitation and reduced water quality.
