Another Company's product
There are a lot of aquarium products on the market, and while most of them will work perfectly fine together in the aquarium, some will not. We can't 100% guarantee any product that's not our own, but here's a few quick rules:
- Avoid using products that overlap in function. Either one works and so it's the one you should be using, both work and so it's a waste to use them both, or neither work and you should be looking for a third, better product. In the case of Reef Fusion 2™, using multiple buffers when only one is needed could result in a pH and alkalinity that is different from the one you want.
- Research the products you use carefully. Typically, if a product or medication is volatile enough to react with a buffer, the company will mention it on the label or website, or you can call in to check.
- When in doubt, wait a day. While there should not be any interaction between Reef Fusion 2™ and another product, leaving 24 hours in between the doses will avoid possible fish stress from rapidly changing water parameters.
Seachem® Products
It's safe to use Reef Fusion 2™ alongside any of the other Seachem® products that are recommended for saltwater systems. That said, using multiple alkalinity supplements simultaneously can increase your alkalinity too much and, as a result, cause calcium precipitation and coral stress.
Here's some Seachem® products that are Reef Buffers
Reef Carbonate™ | Reef Builder™ | Reef Buffer™ |
As previously mentioned, it is perfectly fine to use these supplements together, just make sure not to increase your alkalinity too quickly or too much.
