BALANCE: Equilibrium raises the essential mineral/electrolyte content (General Hardness) of the water to balance with and promote stability of the carbonate hardness.
MINERALS: Equilibrium is specifically designed to establish the optimal mineral content for the planted aquarium. When this mixture is added to the aquarium it will impart a slight haze that should clear within 15–30 minutes.
SUITED FOR: Equilibrium is preferably suited for use with RO (reverse osmosis) and DI (deionized) water or any mineral deficient water.
To increase the mineral content or general hardness (GH) by 1 meq/L (3 dH), add 16 g (1 tbsp) per 80 L (20 US gallons) when starting an aquarium or during water changes. The product may not dissolve immediately, but this is expected and will not be harmful to the tank. It will dissolve gradually within approximately 12 hours.
EQUILIBRIUM: Does not contain sodium or chloride (which can be detrimental to a planted aquarium at elevated levels).
