| The qualities of the water of the East African rift lakes, Lake Malawi and Lake Tanganyika, clearly differ from mid-European tap water. Characteristic are carbonate hardnesses which are above the values of the total hardness, as well as more less high alkaline pH values of about 8-9. JBL AquaDur Malawi/Tanganyika makes water for the species-specific care of East African cichlids from tap water as well as from osmosis water. The pH values are adjusted and buffered at the required alkaline level. This promotes brilliance of colour, readiness to spawn and health. The carbonate hardness is raised above the total hardness and the combination of minerals typical for the lakes introduced to the aquarium water. The special characteristics Malawi and Tanganyika lakes can only be attained using a special salt preparation. Dosage: In medium-hard to hard tap water: 2 level 5 g measuring spoons for 30 l. In soft tap water and osmosis water: For Malawi cichlids: 1 level 5 g measuring spoon for 10 l. For Tanganyika cichlids: 2 level 5 g measuring spoons for 15 l. |
