Masterline KH Minus aquarium water treatment for plants

Masterline KH Minus is a reliable water treatment solution to lower aquariums' carbonate hardness (KH). By carefully reducing KH, this product helps create soft water conditions ideal for sensitive aquatic plants such as Tonina, Syngonanthus, and Eriocaulon. Lowering KH also leads to a more stable and controlled pH, making it easier to maintain balanced water chemistry in planted tanks.

Every dose of KH Minus generates a small amount of CO2, benefiting plant growth. This makes it a water softener and aids in nutrient absorption and plant health. It is completely safe for fish, shrimp, and other aquarium inhabitants when used correctly.
