I’ve used shrimp pHb with shrimp pHa for three months now. The pH stays stable and my cherry shrimp are active and healthy. The plants are thriving too. No signs of plant stress or pH swings. Easy to measure and mix.

The product works well for maintaining pH in my 20L tank. I used it during water changes and noticed the water stayed balanced. My shrimp seem more vibrant. I’d recommend it for beginners too.

After switching to the pHb and pHa system, my ghost shrimp have grown larger and more active. The water chemistry is stable, and I haven’t had any plant issues. It’s simple to use and effective.
