Seachem Replenish

Seachem Replenish is a proprietary blend of salts designed to replenish relevant minerals that are removed by filtration. Replenish restores General Hardness (GH) using a balanced blend of both “soft” (sodium, potassium) and “hard” (calcium, magnesium) salts. Restoration of mineral content is essential since a complete lack of minerals will result in osmotic stress in those species whose systems are adapted to a mineralized environment. Severe stress can result in shock which will lead to rapid death.

Osmotic stress and shock occurs when fish are kept in water with inadequate mineral levels (too high /too low). Osmotic stress affects more seriously fish whose natural habitat is rich in minerals and who are kept in an aquarium with a low mineral level, as osmotic gradients (difference) between the internal fluids of the fish and its surrounding environment (water) increase. Such fish have a less effective osmoregulation than those who are physiologically adapted to water with a low mineral level. That is why they are not able to cope with overloading of osmoregulation.

Directions:
Add 1 capful (5ml) of Replenish to 40L to raise GH by 1 meq/L (2.8 dGH). Recommended restoration level into DI or RO water is 1-2 meq/L which is 5 ml per each 20-40L.
