Seachem Malawi/Victoria Buffer is a specialized blend of carbonate salts designed to replicate the natural environment of cichlids from Lake Malawi and Lake Victoria by increasing carbonate hardness, buffer capacity, and maintaining a stable pH.

Key Features

  • Optimal pH Range: Formulated to maintain a pH of 7.8–8.4.
  • Enhances Natural Environment: Increases carbonate hardness and buffer capacity to mimic natural lake conditions.
  • Safe and Effective: Will not affect general hardness (GH).
  • Versatile: Suitable for use in both freshwater and marine aquariums.

Why Choose Seachem Malawi/Victoria Buffer?

  • Precision Formulation: Specifically designed to replicate the natural conditions of Lake Malawi and Lake Victoria.
  • Stable Environment: Helps maintain a stable pH, crucial for the health of cichlids.
  • Trusted Brand: Seachem is known for its high-quality, scientifically-backed aquarium products.

Initial Setup:

  1. Preparation:

    • Water Preparation: Dissolve the buffer in freshwater before use. This ensures even distribution and effectiveness.
    • Dosage: Use 6 grams (one level teaspoon) for each 40 to 80 liters (10 to 20 US gallons) of water.
  2. Application:

    • Setting Up an Aquarium: Add the dissolved buffer solution to the aquarium water. This can be done when setting up a new tank or during water changes.
    • Adjusting pH: Add the buffer daily until the desired pH is attained and maintained. The target pH range is between 7.8 and 8.4.
  3. Additional Tips:

    • Use with Other Products: For optimal results, use Seachem’s Cichlid Lake Salt and Cichlid Trace alongside the buffer to replicate the natural environment of the lakes.
    • Monitoring: Regularly test the water pH to ensure it remains within the desired range.

Maintenance:

  1. Regular Dosing:

    • Frequency: After achieving the desired pH, use the buffer as required to maintain it, usually no more than once every two to three weeks.
    • Dosage: Continue using 6 grams per 40 to 80 liters of water as needed.
  2. Water Changes:

    • Routine Maintenance: During regular water changes, add the buffer to the new water to maintain consistent pH levels.
    • Dissolve Before Use: Always dissolve the buffer in freshwater before adding it to the tank.
  3. Monitoring and Adjustments:

    • pH Testing: Regularly test the aquarium water to ensure the pH remains stable. Adjust the buffer dosage if necessary.
    • Combining Buffers: If a lower pH is needed, use Seachem’s Acid Buffer in combination with Malawi/Victoria Buffer. For a higher pH, use Tanganyika Buffer.
  1. Can I use this buffer in a marine aquarium?
    Yes, it is suitable for both freshwater and marine aquariums.

  2. How often should I use the buffer?
    Typically, you will need to add it every two to three weeks, but this can vary based on your specific aquarium conditions.

  3. What should I do if my pH is higher than desired?
    Ensure you are using DI or RO water as your source water. If the pH remains high, it may settle down to a more stable level over time.
