Aquavitro Carbonate – 1 L
Carbonate hardness (KH) measures the concentration of bicarbonate and carbonate in water. It plays a key role in maintaining stable pH levels and serves as a backup source of CO2 if levels drop too low.
This product is formulated with potassium bicarbonate, which increases both carbonate hardness and potassium content in the water.
| Specification | Value |
|---|---|
| Carbonate Hardness (KH) | 2000 meq/L (5600 dKH) |
| Potassium Content | 78,300 mg/L |
| Volume | 1 L |

I used this in my aquarium setup and noticed a steady pH level even after several water changes. The potassium content seems to support fish health well. Easy to mix and effective for maintaining stable conditions.

The product works as expected for maintaining KH. I appreciate the high potassium level which helps in water stability. Slightly higher than expected in terms of concentration, but manageable.
