Description
Aquavitro Plant Mineralize is a 350ml product that is designed to increase or restore the general hardness of water. It is a blend of divalent salts that primarily consist of calcium and magnesium. This product is useful for replicating the natural environments of different plant species, as some plants thrive in soft water while others prefer hard water. The recommended dosage is 5mL for every 40L of water, which will raise the general hardness by 1 meq/L (2.8 dGH). The desired general hardness can be achieved by adjusting the dosage according to a provided chart. This product can be used during aquarium setup or water changes, and should be used once a week or as needed.
Aquavitro Plant Mineralize
Blend of divalent salts designed to restore or increase general hardness.
Standard dose raises GH by 1 meq/L (2.8 dGH)
General hardness is the divalent metal cation content of the water. In most water this is comprised primarily of calcium and magnesium. Soft water has a low concentration of dissolved divalent cations, hard water a high concentration.
The native environment of some plants (Cryptocoryne, Aponogeton, etc.) is soft, whereas others (Sagittaria subulata, Riccia fluitans, etc.) are more acclimated to hard water. In order to replicate these environments it may be necessary to adjust hardness.
mineralize is a blend of divalent salts designed to restore or increase general hardness.
Directions:
To raise mineral content/ general hardness (GH) by 1 meq/L (2.8 dH), use 5 mL for every 40 L (10 US gallons) when setting up an aquarium or when making water changes (add to new water). Thereafter, use once a week (or as needed).
This dose raises GH by 1 meq/L (2.8 dGH).
Target a lower general hardness for soft water, a higher value for hard water (see chart).
Size: 350ml
