Description
Premium GH Mineral Booster for Bee & Crystal Shrimp
Achieve the perfect water parameters for sensitive soft-water invertebrates with Aqua-Pics Bee Shrimp GH Conditioning Salts. Bee Shrimp (Caridina species) require precise mineral levels to thrive, molt safely, and reproduce. Standard tap or rainwater often lacks the necessary balance of essential minerals—this specialized conditioning salt re-mineralizes pure Reverse Osmosis (RO) or soft water without disturbing your target pH or KH.
Enriched with a balanced ratio of calcium, magnesium, and essential trace elements, Aqua-Pics GH Salts assist with natural osmoregulation, prevent deadly molting issues (such as the "white ring of death"), and encourage vibrant color expression in your colony.
Key Benefits:
-
Targeted GH Elevation: Increases General Hardness (GH) without raising Carbonate Hardness (KH) or altering pH—ideal for active soils and soft-water setups.
-
Prevents Molting Complications: Delivers bio-available calcium and magnesium crucial for forming healthy, strong new shells.
-
Pure & Phosphate-Free: Contains no harmful phosphates or nitrates that could trigger unwanted algae blooms or harm sensitive shrimp.
-
Complete Mineralization: Restores essential trace minerals often missing in RO, DI, or rainwater systems.
Recommended For:
-
Bee Shrimp (Caridina Cantonensis)
-
Crystal Red & Crystal Black Shrimp (CRS/CBS)
-
Taiwan Bees (King Kong, Panda, Red Wine, Blue Bolt)
-
Tiger Shrimp & other soft-water freshwater invertebrates
Usage & Dosage Instructions:
-
Dissolve First: Always mix the required dosage thoroughly in a clean container of fresh replacement water (preferably RO/DI water) before adding it to your aquarium.
-
Standard Dosing: Add salts incrementally to reach your desired GH level (recommended target for Bee Shrimp: 4 – 6 dGH).
-
Tip: Use a digital TDS meter or reliable GH test kit to measure water parameters accurately after mixing.
