Seachem Cichlid Trace 250 mL

Seachem Cichlid Trace 250 mL is a specialized trace-element supplement formulated to restore essential minerals found in African Rift Lake environments, making it ideal for Lake Malawi, Lake Tanganyika, and Lake Victoria cichlids. These trace elements are naturally depleted over time through biological activity and water changes and must be replenished to maintain optimal fish health.

Cichlid Trace supplies a balanced blend of vital trace minerals that support proper growth, coloration, metabolism, and immune function. It is designed to be used alongside Seachem Cichlid Lake Salt and buffers to create a complete, stable water chemistry program for African cichlid aquariums.

When used as directed, Seachem Cichlid Trace helps promote long-term vitality, reduced stress, and natural behavior in Rift Lake cichlids.
