About this product
The NeoCaridina GH+ NEO RO Water Mineralizer – the perfect solution for Neocaridina shrimp.
Contrary to popular belief, Neocaridina shrimp are exceptionally tolerant of water parameters and can be bred in tap water, the reality is more complex. Tap water parameters, especially general hardness (GH) and carbonate hardness (KH), vary significantly by region, both in Poland and elsewhere in Europe. To meet these challenges, the NeoCaridina GH+ NEO mineralization system was created , enabling precise water preparation using reverse osmosis (RO) water.
NeoCaridina GH+ NEO – the key to optimal conditions for shrimp.
The GH+ NEO mineralizer is designed to increase the general hardness (GH) of RO water, providing ideal conditions for breeding Neocaridina shrimp . The product stands out for its rapid dissolution and lack of insoluble sediments, making the water preparation process extremely simple and effective.
Combined with the KH+ NEO mineralizer, which increases carbonate hardness (KH) and stabilizes pH, the NeoCaridina GH+ KH+ mineralization system allows for precise adjustment of water parameters, ensuring a stable and safe environment for shrimp.
Recommended water parameters:
General hardness (GH): 9–10
Carbonate hardness (KH): 2–3
Such values promote the healthy development of shrimp, their proper molting and vivid colors.
A Perfect Helper – Dosage Calculator.
To help you calculate the appropriate mineralizer doses, an intuitive calculator is available on our website. This makes preparing water with optimal parameters even easier.
NeoCaridina GH+ NEO is a reliable solution that allows aquarists full control over water quality, regardless of the initial parameters of tap water. This product was created with the safety and health of your shrimp in mind. The calculator is available at this link . The 125 ml and 500 ml GH+ KH+ NEO packages include three types of precision dosers: a 25 ml graduated measuring cup, and 1 ml and 5 ml syringes. The 1000 ml GH+ NEO and KH+ NEO packages do not include any dosers.
Basic Considerations for Substrate Selection
: Based on numerous observations, the best solution seems to be the combination of the GH+ KH NEO mineralization system and a neutral substrate that does not alter water parameters in terms of GH and KH. Before setting up the tank, it's best to fill the substrate with clean RO water and check after 24 hours to see if it changes the water parameters in terms of GH and KH. A calculator is available on our website to help you calculate the doses and prepare the water.
KH+ NEO
KH+ NEO only increases carbonate hardness and regulates pH. KH+ NEO should be used in conjunction with GH+ NEO.
Directions for use:
10 ml of GH+ NEO added to 10 liters of RO water produces 10 dGH and a net conductivity of approximately H=600 µS. The website at this link also contains current application instructions and recommended parameters.
