Why Use Fritz RPM Elements Part 1 Alk?

Shake well before use. Test alkalinity before dosing and dose gradually according to your aquarium’s needs and the manufacturer’s instructions.
Test alkalinity regularly and avoid rapid changes in KH. Dose separately from calcium supplements and do not mix directly with calcium or magnesium solutions before adding to the aquarium.
