    It really raised the PH to 8.3. I used this a couple of times because my PH was 8.0 regardless of what I did. So I gave this a try and it raised it to 8.1, then to 8.2 the second time I used this....I waited a week before using it a second time, just to prevent shock. When I used it a 3rd time, it went up to 8.3....a month later, it is still 8.3. PH Saver!! As noted on the description, using this can lower your calcium level. You may have to dose some calcium supplement the next day after using this. Mine went from 460 to 440....but I recommend you test your waters before and after you use this just to be sure.

    THIS PRODUCT IS GREAT. IT CONTROLS THE PH AND HOLDS IT AT 8.3. I HAVE BEEN USING IT FOR ABOUT 7 YEARS AND WILL CONTINUE TO USE IT.

    Great for raising KH and PH, not so much for Ca. My Ca levels are much lower while my KH is off the charts...

    ok

    It definitely buffers your water, however if your calcium and magnesium ratios (1:3) arent correct, you will be left with a cloudy tank.

    Product works great!

Reef Buffer will also raise carbonate alkalinity; however, it is intended primarily for use as a buffer in a reef system where the maintenance of a pH of 8.3 is often difficult. When pH is not an issue, Reef Builder or Reef Carbonate should be your first choice for a carbonate alkalinity supplement. Reef Buffer is specifically designed to meet the needs and requirements of the closed reef environment. The principal difference between Reef Buffer and Marine Buffer is that the pK of Reef Buffer is slightly higher than that of Marine Buffer. The pK of a buffering agent is equivalent to the pH around which that buffer most strongly buffers. One would presume, then, that the pK of a saltwater buffer should be 8.3; however, the multitude of organic acids produced by the inhabitants of a reef system forces pH downward to a much greater degree than in a non-reef, marine system. A buffer with a pK of 8.3 would end up yielding a pH more in the range of 8.0-8.2. Reef Buffer"s higher pK (8.6) allows for greater pH stability in a reef system where the bio load is significantly more than in a fish only system.
