Larger doses may be required in very hard (KH) or alkaline waters. For precise dosing, use the Seachem Digital Spoon Scale.<\/p>\n<p>In order to adjust pH gradually, or if water is soft or not well buffered, use Acid Buffer\u2122 with Alkaline Buffer\u2122. When using Alkaline Buffer\u2122 &amp; Acid Buffer\u2122 together to target a specific pH, utilize the suggested ratio chart.<\/p>\n<p>HINT: First determine the amount of Alkaline Buffer\u2122 needed for the volume of water. This should be determined based upon your desired alkalinity (KH). Then, divide by the number in the middle column to obtain the correct amount of Acid Buffer\u2122 required.<\/p>\n<h2>\u0627\u0644\u062a\u062e\u0632\u064a\u0646 \u0648\u0627\u0644\u0633\u0644\u0627\u0645\u0629<\/h2>\n<p>\u0627\u062d\u0641\u0638 \u0627\u0644\u0639\u0628\u0648\u0629 \u0645\u062d\u0643\u0645\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u0625\u063a\u0644\u0627\u0642 \u0641\u064a \u0645\u0643\u0627\u0646 \u0628\u0627\u0631\u062f \u0648\u062c\u0627\u0641\u060c \u0628\u0639\u064a\u062f\u064b\u0627 \u0639\u0646 \u0645\u062a\u0646\u0627\u0648\u0644 \u0627\u0644\u0623\u0637\u0641\u0627\u0644. \u0627\u0633\u062a\u062e\u062f\u0645 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0646\u062a\u062c \u0641\u0642\u0637 \u0648\u0641\u0642 \u0627\u0644\u062a\u0639\u0644\u064a\u0645\u0627\u062a \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0648\u0636\u062d\u0629 \u0639\u0644\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0639\u0628\u0648\u0629.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Acid Buffer\u2122 is a non\u2013phosphate buffer to lower pH and buffer with Alkaline Buffer\u2122.
