  • Raises pH 
  • Increases KH to buffer pH
  • Adds some hardness to water

If you have softer water with low pH, KH, and GH and wish you could keep aquarium fish, shrimp, and snails that need higher pH, crushed coral is a gentle and safe way to buffer your water. Crushed coral dissolves continuously over time. The lower your pH is, the faster it dissolves. As the pH rises, it slows down how fast the coral dissolves. Crushed coral adds a bit of hardness to the water, and it significantly boosts KH which buffers pH from swinging.

Coral awesome

I had been reluctant to add coral because I was already using easy shrimp snail tabs for minerals. But my water is very soft and 0 KH and I thought this would help in a small 5g tank w shrimp and 5 male guppies.,the bonus is that it added a nice lightness to the substrate look of tank. I rinsed well but still got a tiny bit of cloudiness for a few hours / not a problem at all.

Cryshed coral

I still need more time to see if the crushed coral will buffer my tank to keep up my PH level. Need to give it about 2 weeks for tge coral ti dissolve.
