Discus Buffer®
Adjusts pH to 5.8 – 6.8
Helps to replicate the ideal Discus environment
Use with Neutral Regulator® to target a pH
Overview
Discus Buffer® helps to replicate the ideal Discus environment (low pH & low GH (General Hardness)). Discus Buffer® will lower pH and keep it lowered. Discus Buffer® also softens water by precipitating calcium and magnesium. Use Discus Trace™ to restore the proper level of trace elements and feed NutriDiet® Discus Flakes for thriving, healthy Discus.
Neutral Regulator® and Discus Buffer® can be used in combination to achieve a desired pH when performing water changes or adding top off water. The ratio chart is available in the product documentation.
| Function | Effect |
|---|---|
| Lowers pH | Stabilizes water pH between 5.8 and 6.8 |
| Softens water | Precipitates calcium and magnesium |

Edward Churchill –
Used Discus Buffer® regularly in my tank and noticed a steady pH drop to around 6.0. The water became softer, which is exactly what my discus fish needed. Combined with Neutral Regulator®, I can now maintain a stable pH without frequent adjustments. My fish have shown better color and activity since using it.

The product works as described. pH dropped to 6.2 after a few days and stayed stable. I added it during water changes and didn’t have to adjust much. The water softening effect is noticeable, especially after a few weeks of use.
Jason Paterson –
My discus have been thriving since I started using Discus Buffer®. The pH remains consistently low, and the water quality improved. I use it with Discus Trace™ and NutriDiet® flakes for a complete care routine.
