It supplies the major ions that support general physiology and stable water chemistry, helping you create a comfortable setting for a diverse cichlid community.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKey composition findings are guaranteed by weight and include essential ions along with trace components. Magnesium and potassium form a strong base for mineral balance, while sodium and calcium contribute to the overall ionic strength. Trace elements such as iron and iodide are present in smaller amounts, with a trace aluminum component noted in the blend. This combination is designed to support a healthy mineral baseline without introducing unwanted compounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey composition and guarantees\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMagnesium 11.83%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePotassium 10.08%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSodium 3.53%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCalcium 3.24%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminum 0.09%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIron 0.02%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIodide 0.002%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eSeachem Cichlid Lake Salt is non acidic and manufactured in the United States.
