I’ve used this with my Amano shrimp and the water pH has stayed stable since setup. The plants are thriving and the shrimp are active. No signs of plant stress, which I was worried about with regular tap water.

The instructions were clear and the product worked well during my first water change. I paired it with pHb and the pH settled at 6.5, which is perfect for my shrimp. I’d recommend it to other shrimp keepers.

After switching from tap water, my shrimp aquarium became much more balanced. The plants grew better and the shrimp seemed healthier. No sodium issues, which was a relief.
