Description
API Pond pH Up - 16 oz.
API® POND pH UP pH adjuster slowly raises the pH of pond water, making it more alkaline, without harming delicate pond fish or aquatic plants. It slowly neutralizes acid substances that contribute to low pH, which can stress pond fish and suppress the activity of your pond’s natural biological filter.
