Seachem Neutral Regulator 250 g – Freshwater pH Buffer & Water Conditioner
Seachem Neutral Regulator 250 g is a freshwater pH buffer and water conditioner used to help adjust aquarium pH toward neutral 7.0. It is commonly used in freshwater community aquariums, quarantine tanks, breeding setups, and water preparation routines when a neutral pH target is appropriate for the livestock being kept.
Neutral Regulator should be used according to the Seachem product label and with regular water testing. pH, KH, GH, ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate should be monitored when using buffers or water chemistry products.

- Avoid chasing exact pH numbers without considering stability
- Do not combine multiple buffers without understanding their effects
- Continue regular water changes, filtration, and water testing
Important Aquarium Care Note
Many freshwater fish can tolerate a range of pH values if the aquarium is stable, but sudden pH changes can stress livestock. Before using a buffer, consider the needs of the fish and the chemistry of your source water.
Seachem Neutral Regulator does not replace proper aquarium cycling, water changes, filtration, or water testing. Use carefully and follow the manufacturer’s directions.
