Beware this is the worst Pet store that I've ever been to. I just spent over $350 in the last six months came into the store because I'm converting one of my old tanks to an African tank. This store by the way only had 2 African fish in stock for 3 month and counting. if you know what you want, you might be OK. Need to get some advice "you are throw money to wind." So now I'm in the store then I asked what proper PH should be for the African fish store attendant confidently walk me over 7.0 PH product. She didn't explain to me that this is for a specific type of African and not all Africans as the manager suggested the other pet store I went to is adamant that 7.0 PH will kill your African fish.
If you Google it, it's gonna tell you 8.0 - 8.2 PH. So with that said I went out and bought about $60 worth of fish wound up died due to the fact that the information I received from the store was incorrect. When I talk to the manager about this, he tried to tell me I misheard what I heard from the representative days prior when he wasn't even present. Then he went on to claim in their tanks are at 7.0 PH so this is what she meant to express to me as if I heard it wrong.
The manager at this time tells me we don't have a way of given you anything back. No gift cards for store credit nothing. I'm going to offer you a discount towards your next purchase in our store as if I'm going to come back and spend more money in order to receive some type of compensation indirectly and you're giving me no resolution or consideration.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Works to keep your water at 7.0 and cleans it of impurities. I have town water which has a lot of chemicals, this works great.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Seems to work well. But the problem is that this product also softens water by removing required trace elements. The directions printed on the panel is advertising yet another product of seachem called "fresh trace" to restore the mess this product made. Funny business world!
No, I do not recommend this product.

Seachem Neutral Regulator maintains the ph to 7 ensuring that it doesn't get too high or to low. It's pretty much mistake-proof. I use it regularly in my 6 fish tanks.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Is this safe to use in an aquarium with shrimp, snails, and live plants?
I’ve been using this in a new tank I’m setting up,no fish yet.We have bad tap water.All my levels are ok except:high ph, hardness and alkalinity. After 3 days of using this those 3 levels are still high, no change.How come it’s not working?
- This product is a buffer that keeps the water quality stable, but it is not designed to correct large changes in water quality. The best solution is to find a different water source that is close to ideal. This product will then fine tune the water and maintain it within reasonable bounds.

Can this be used in an axolotl tank?
can Seachem's neutral regulator be used with their "Purigen" product?(Without causing issues).
- Absolutely. The Purigen is used as a chemical filtration, whereas the Regulator is for water chemistry. It will help the PH of the water to stay balanced at 7.0-7.5. You will need to re-dose it after large water changes as well.
Helpful?
Can this be added while fish are tank-example will it shock and kill my fish if the PH is adjusted too fast?
- Any fast change in tank of any kind can cause problems with fish but it also depends on the type of fish. Wish i could provide more exact info but if your ph is off by alot using the regulator after a healthy water change will assist for sure. I use a quarter of a teaspoon after each water change. which i do weekly. Ph is always around 7 to 7.4

Netural regulator how long dose it returlize ammon I the tank and how often can it be used
- For my 25 gallons aquarium at first I used 5 grs once a week for one month and then ever 2 months. It much depend on how much ammonia you have. It won't work if you don't fix overfeeding which is the maine reason of it. Other reason may be too many fish in a small tank. I suggest, balance it.

does the powder form expire
I’m trying to get the ph down on a new 24 gallon freshwater tank. I’ve used 1tsp a day for several days, but the tank is still around 7.8. What do i need to do to drop the ph? I have 3 tetra type fish in the tank.
- Get a new test kit..
Helpful?
If this product works slowly, which of course is desirable, doesn’t the ph go back up during water changes until the product has time to work? I worry about fluctuations
- I use it after every water change! It works pretty fast! I've never had a problem with it
Helpful?
Can you use this with fish in the tank or do you have to take the fish out before use?
- It can be used with fish in the tank. The powder floats to the bottom and dissolves. Will not harm fish. I have used this product for years.
