Seachem Cichlid Trace Elements 500ml

I was really hesitant to get this because I read in some fish groups that this was a waste of money. I have really soft water to the point it is basically RO water so I decided to give this a shot since I have no minerals or nutrients in my water because of my water softener. I use lake cichlid salt to bring up the GH which has improved the health and growth of my tank but was still noticing slow growth and lack of decent color. I tried this product once and my fish have colored up significantly the next day. They have even started breeding. I would definitely recommend this product if your water is very soft. If you have normal water you might not need it or see much of a difference.

Cichlid Trace adds back trace elements into the water that have been depleted by utilization, oxidation and precipitation. the formula contains only elements that have been demonstrated to be required by fish. The elements added back in are Calcium (min 2.4% - max 2.64%), Magnesium (min 0.792%), Iodine (min 0.1%), Potassium (min 0.1%), Copper (min 0.032 mg), Fluorine (max 0.001 mg), Iron (min 0.007 mg), Manganese (min 0.002 mg), Selenium (min 0.00006 mg), and Zinc (min 0.007 mg). The 500 mL will treat 100 gallons for 2-4 months based on if you douse once or twice a week with one capful (5mL) for every 20 gallons. I have noticed that my fish went through a growth spurt and are not as stressed when using this along with Seachem Prime. Their colors have started to really shine over the past couple of months and on my convict Cichlids, their stripes have become more pronounced. I have a Jack Dempsey that is now about 6" long where I purchased him at about 1.5" in March. In the past 2 months he has outgrown every other fish in my tank and while quality food has done a lot for that, the Jack Dempsey I purchased last year took about 9 months to reach that size. I have a 75 gallon Oceanic tank with a trickle filter so I'm running about 90 gallons through it. I also have a 29 gallon tank with a pair of Blue Peacock Cichlids that seemed somewhat dull until I started with the trace elements and since then they have started mating and I now have a few babies running around in there as well. I would recommend this product to anyone with Cichlids, it puts my mind at ease and I believe that it makes the fish happier as well.

I’ve been using Seachem Cichlid Trace Elements 500ml in my freshwater cichlid tank for a few months now, and I’ve noticed a real difference in the overall health and coloration of my fish. This supplement provides essential minerals and trace elements that are often missing in regular tap or RO water, helping prevent deficiencies that can lead to poor growth or weakened immune systems. I especially appreciate that it’s easy to dose, and a little goes a long way. My cichlids are more active, their colors are more vibrant, and I feel confident knowing I’m giving them a complete mineral profile. Highly recommend for anyone keeping African or South American cichlids—or really any freshwater fish that benefit from trace element supplementation.

I use this in my 55 gallon Mbuna tank. Helps with the general hardness, as I change nine gallons of water each day (tank is overstocked). Use this in conjunction with Cichlid Trace and Cichlid Lake Salt. Fish are happy, healthy and beautifully colored.

First let me tell you if you have any fish "Especially Cichlids" you need to ensure they are getting the proper nutrients they need from the water. For optimal color/health and longevity Seachem trace is what you want! In my 30 years I have seen the results of those who add Trace to tanks and those keepers who do not. Difference is night and day! Don't get confused between the Trace for the different species it is pretty much all identical! Per Seachem it is merely for marketing purposes! African Trace will be no different then the freshwater Trace by Seachem. I use mainly the African Trace since bulk is the best deal in all my tanks, 90 planted, 135 African & 220 SA/CA, but I have from time to time used Fresh Trace as well. There really is no difference. I have never had any parameter issue's while using it. I dose it once a month after my 75% Water change. If you really care for your fish you would be wise to ensure they have everything! Now if Amazon or there deli we people would stop throwing packages and boxes perhaps customers would not have to get broken/leaky bottles half the time!

I guess it is good, mu fish are still alive

As described…..Bottle was sealed and intact.
