Used this buffer in my planted tank for several months. The pH stabilized well without causing algae issues. No cloudiness, and my plants stayed healthy. Easy to dose and effective.

Good product for raising alkalinity in hard water. Works smoothly with my existing setup. I didn’t notice any side effects on fish or plants after regular use.

Switched from a phosphate-based buffer after seeing algae growth. This non-phosphate version has made a clear difference. pH stays steady and water clarity improved.
