Brightwell Aquatics Shrimp NeoTiger KH+/GH+ – 250mL

Brightwell Aquatics Shrimp NeoTiger KH+/GH+ – 250mL

Brightwell Shrimp NeoTiger KH+/GH+ is a freshwater remineralizer formulated for Neocaridina shrimp, Tiger shrimp, freshwater fish, and planted aquariums. It helps establish mineral balance in RO/DI, purified, or very soft water by raising both general hardness (GH) and carbonate hardness (KH).

This liquid mineral supplement provides a beneficial ratio of important elements including potassium, calcium, magnesium, and sodium. These minerals help support shrimp molting, osmoregulation, aquarium stability, and overall freshwater livestock health.

Key Features

• Liquid GH and KH remineralizer for freshwater shrimp aquariums
• Designed primarily for Neocaridina and Tiger shrimp
• Helps remineralize RO, DI, purified, or very soft water
• Raises both GH and KH for improved mineral balance
• Provides potassium, calcium, magnesium, and sodium
• Helps support shrimp molting, osmoregulation, and aquarium stability
• Useful for planted shrimp tanks and freshwater community aquariums
• Easy liquid dosing for gradual water chemistry adjustment

Recommended Use

• Neocaridina shrimp aquariums
• Tiger shrimp aquariums
• Planted shrimp tanks
• Freshwater aquariums using RO/DI water
• Very soft tap or well water
• Freshwater biotope aquariums
• Water changes where GH and KH need to be restored

Directions

Shake well before use. For best results, mix NeoTiger KH+/GH+ into new water before adding it to the aquarium. Test GH, KH, pH, and TDS regularly when remineralizing shrimp water.

• Basic Adjustment: Dose gradually until the desired GH, KH, or TDS value is reached.
• Pre-Established Aquarium: Dose up to 4mL per 10 US gallons per hour until the desired GH/TDS value is reached.
• Advanced Dosing: Each 1mL increases GH and KH in 10 liters / 2.5 US gallons of water by approximately 1 dGH and 0.57 dKH.
• Pump Size: Each pump dispenses approximately 2mL.
• Best Practice: Make all water chemistry changes slowly to avoid stressing shrimp, fish, or plants.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does Brightwell Shrimp NeoTiger KH+/GH+ do?

NeoTiger KH+/GH+ adds essential minerals back into RO/DI, purified, or very soft water while raising both GH and KH for freshwater shrimp aquariums.

What shrimp is NeoTiger KH+/GH+ best for?

It is designed primarily for Neocaridina shrimp and Tiger shrimp, which generally prefer more mineralized water than many Caridina soft-water shrimp.

Does NeoTiger KH+/GH+ raise both GH and KH?

Yes. Brightwell states that each 1mL increases GH and KH in 10 liters / 2.5 US gallons by approximately 1 dGH and 0.57 dKH.

Can I use NeoTiger KH+/GH+ for Caridina shrimp?

For soft-water Caridina shrimp such as Crystal Red, Crystal Black, and Taiwan Bee shrimp, Brightwell Shrimp Caridina GH+ is usually the better choice because it raises GH without intentionally raising KH.

Should I mix NeoTiger KH+/GH+ before adding water to the aquarium?

Yes. For shrimp tanks, it is best to mix the product into a water change container first, test GH/KH/TDS, and then slowly add the prepared water to the aquarium.

Can NeoTiger KH+/GH+ be used in planted tanks?

Yes. It provides minerals such as potassium, calcium, magnesium, and sodium, which can support freshwater aquarium plants and livestock when used as directed.

Do I still need a dechlorinator?

Yes, if you are using chlorinated tap water. NeoTiger KH+/GH+ remineralizes water, but it does not replace a water conditioner or dechlorinator.

How quickly should I adjust GH and KH?

Adjust slowly. Brightwell recommends gradual changes and lists a maximum of up to 4mL per 10 gallons per hour in a pre-established aquarium.

Important Note

This product is intended for ornamental freshwater aquarium use only. Keep out of reach of children. Not for human consumption. Always test GH, KH, pH, and TDS when keeping shrimp or adjusting water chemistry.
