The pH value or “acidity level” indicates how acidic or basic (alkaline) a water is. Pure water reacts neutrally and has a pH value of 7. If the acidic components predominate, the pH value drops (pH < 7); if the alkaline components predominate, the pH value increases (pH > 7). Many organisms react extremely sensitively to strong fluctuations in pH.

In freshwater aquariums, the optimal pH range for most fish and plants is between 6,5 and 7,2. However, special biotopes such as Lake Malawi in Africa also have higher pH values ​​of up to 9,0. In saltwater aquariums, the optimal pH value is between 8,0 and 8,5, as in the oceans. Strong fluctuations and excessive drops or rises in the pH value should be avoided at all costs and the acidity level in the pool should therefore be checked regularly.
