Product description

Seachem Equilibrium is designed to establish the ideal mineral content for the planted aquarium. It raises the essential mineral and electrolyte content, or general hardness (GH), of the water and contains no sodium or chloride, which can be harmful to plants at elevated levels. Equilibrium is ideally suited to RO, DI, or any mineral-deficient water. Browse our full range of additives and supplements and the rest of the Seachem lineup.

Remineralize RO and soft water for planted tanks. Restores calcium, magnesium, potassium, and iron without adding sodium or chloride. To maintain carbonate hardness (KH), pair with Seachem Alkaline Buffer.

Why Seachem Equilibrium

Plant-focused mineralsSupplies calcium, magnesium, potassium, iron, and manganese in plant-friendly ratios.
No sodium or chlorideAvoids the elevated salts that can stress plants and sensitive fish.
Ideal for RO and DI waterRebuilds GH in purified or naturally soft water for healthy growth.
Raises general hardnessPromotes stable, balanced water chemistry for a thriving planted tank.
Concentrated powderA little dissolves into a lot of water, so each container treats many changes.
Pairs with Alkaline BufferUse alongside Alkaline Buffer to set and hold your target KH.

How to Use

To raise general hardness by roughly 1 meq/L (about 3 dGH), add 16 grams (one tablespoon) of Equilibrium to every 80 liters (20 US gallons) of water. For best results, dissolve in a small amount of fresh water before adding to the aquarium, ideally during a water change. Adjust the dose to reach the GH your plants and livestock prefer.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is Equilibrium different from Replenish?
Equilibrium is built for planted tanks and contains no sodium or chloride, while Replenish is balanced for fish in general freshwater. Choose Equilibrium when plants are the priority.

Does it raise KH too?
No. Equilibrium raises general hardness (GH) only. To raise and hold carbonate hardness (KH), use it together with Seachem Alkaline Buffer.

Can I use it with RO water?
Yes. Equilibrium is ideal for remineralizing RO, DI, and other mineral-deficient water before it goes into a planted tank.

How much do I add?
About 16 grams per 80 liters (20 gallons) raises GH by roughly 3 dGH. Adjust to reach your target hardness.
