Seachem Cichlid Lake Salt 250g

Seachem Cichlid Lake Salt is a chemically precise blend of salts designed to replicate the natural mineral content found in the African Rift Lakes—Lake Malawi, Lake Tanganyika, and Lake Victoria. It is essential for maintaining the ideal environment for cichlid health, breeding, and colouration.

  1. Product Details:

    • Model: Seachem Cichlid Lake Salt 250g
    • Description: A specialised blend of salts that provides essential elements including calcium, magnesium, potassium, and sodium to create a healthy environment for African cichlids.
    • Weight: 250g
    • Form: Fine crystalline powder
    • Dosage: Use 5g (1 level teaspoon) for every 40–80 litres of water depending on the lake origin being replicated
    • Application: Add when setting up an aquarium or when performing water changes
    • Water Type: Freshwater (African cichlid biotopes only)
    • Target Species: African cichlids from Lake Malawi, Tanganyika, and Victoria
    • Reef Safe: No
    • Country of Manufacture: USA
  2. Benefits:

    • Recreates natural Rift Lake water chemistry with balanced electrolytes
    • Supports proper osmoregulation for improved health and vitality
    • Promotes optimal colouration and breeding behaviour
    • Helps stabilise pH and hardness levels
    • Essential for long-term well-being and disease resistance
    • Free from unnecessary additives such as nitrate and phosphate
  3. How It Works:

    • Dissolves quickly in water, releasing trace elements that replicate the ionic content of natural cichlid habitats
