	PH/KH buffers?
pmdaggett Enthusiast Posts: 191 Kudos: 169 Votes: 1 Registered: 25-Jul-2004	I have been using "Reef Pure" marine KH/PH buffer for the past few weeks. Last night I used added it to my top off water, which the instructions said was okay to do. This morning I woke up and found my clownfish had died. I checked the P.H. level and it was still the same as the night before. Could there be an explanation for this? Could it have been the buffer I used? I was hoping someone could share the same experiances.

I havent ever heard of that kind of buffer though. I use to use B-Ionic which is a good buffer/calcium suppliment. I am using Oceans Blend now, because it adds more trace elements, is cheaper, and works better.
