Why It's Different

American Cichlid Salt is formulated so that dosages vary depending on the species’ origin and need only be added when setting up an aquarium or with water changes.

Directions

All doses given for 110 L (30 gallons*). SOUTH AMERICAN: Use 2.5 g (1/2 teaspoon). CENTRAL AMERICAN: Use 1.25 g (1/4 teaspoon). BUFFERING: Acid Regulator™ (pH 4.5–5.8) and Neutral Regulator™ (pH 7.0) should be used to adjust pH. TIPS: Use when setting up an aquarium and when making water changes. To add salt to an established tank, base dose on water being changed. Do not use salt when simply replacing evaporated water. It is best to dissolve the salt in freshwater before use.
