Both buffers are designed for the planted aquarium or for very hard water where phosphate buffers may pose an algae or cloudiness problem. Acid Buffer™ lowers pH and buffers between 6.0 and 8.0 when used with Alkaline Buffer™. As Acid Buffer™ lowers pH it converts carbonate alkalinity (KH) into available CO\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003clabel\u003eWhat is the difference between Acid Buffer™ and Acid Regulator™\u003c\/label\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The difference is that Acid Buffer™ is a straight acid source and Acid Regulator™ is a phosphate based buffering system. Acid Regulator™ has a greater ability to maintain a pH as were a straight acid source can have a slight pH drift. When you are trying to avoid any additional phosphates I would go with the Acid Buffer™ and Alkaline Buffer® products but if that is not an issue, then the Acid Regulator™ will maintain a more constant pH.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"DFW Aquarium","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43766803071042,"sku":null,"price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2364\/3815\/files\/000116024600.jpg?v=1779209961","url":"https:\/\/tkaquatics.com\/products\/seachem-acid-buffer-300g","provider":"TK Aquatics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
