For optimum solubility, mix in a separate container with a 1 quart of water (the resulting mixture will have a white opaque appearance). When this mixture is added to the aquarium, it will impart a slight haze that should clear within 15-30 minutes. \n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e This dosage is based on DI or RO water. For other water, measure hardness (GH) first, and then add  Equilibrium according to need. Plant preferences vary, but a general guide is about 1-2 meq\/L (3-6 dH) or match the existing or target carbonate hardness (KH), which, ideally, is also about 1-2 meq\/L (3-6 dKH).

Equilibrium contains no sodium or chloride (which can be detrimental to a planted aquarium at elevated levels). Equilibrium is ideally suited for use with RO (reverse osmosis) or DI (deionized) water or any mineral deficient water. Equilibrium raises the essential mineral\/electrolyte content (General Hardness) of the water to balance with and promote stability of the carbonate hardness. Maintain KH (alkalinity) with an alkaline buffer.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhy It's Different\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nUnlike competing products, Equilibrium contains no sodium chloride. Both sodium and chloride are not rapidly depleted elements in a planted aquarium and in the case of chloride, can do more harm than good. Competitors' products generally contain primarily sodium chloride (because it is inexpensive), which will raise the electrolyte levels for fish, but can be detrimental to plant growth. In addition, sodium is not a contributing cation to GH levels. Equilibrium contains only calcium, magnesium, and potassium salts, which aid in fish metabolism, but are also highly beneficial to plant growth.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LiveAquaria","offers":[{"title":"300 grams","offer_id":48509124280563,"sku":"899984","price":7.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"600 grams","offer_id":48509124313331,"sku":"900009","price":12.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0794\/9497\/1635\/files\/lg_899984_79591RZ.jpg?v=1771033241","url":"https:\/\/www.liveaquaria.com\/products\/seachem-equilibrium","provider":"LiveAquaria","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
