Discus Buffer

[fish lover]

Has anyone used this product? It claims to lower PH and soft water at
the same time. I'm using peat to soft my water and lower PH. If I can
use this product, it willl be much easier. I have to treat my water
for more than 6 hours to soft it and lower the ph to about 7.2

What's the difference between PH Down and Discus buffer? I know PH
Done does not work in my case because the PH shoot back to 8.3 in a
day or so after I used it. Would Discus Buffer be different?


Thanks

pH down is just acid while Discus Buffer is a phosphate buffer that
holds the pH steady. It precipitates out calcium and magnesium
phosphate to soften your water. Seachem's FAQ on Discus Buffer is
