Seachem Replenish 250ml

Restore and maintain GH
Replenishes necessary minerals removed by RO/DI
Necessary to prevent osmotic stress and osmotic shock

Replenish™ is a proprietary blend of salts designed to replenish physiologically relevant minerals that are removed by reverse osmosis or deionizing filtration. Replenish™ restores General Hardness (GH) using a balanced blend of both “soft” (sodium, potassium) and “hard” (calcium, magnesium) salts. Restoration of mineral content is essential since a complete lack of minerals will result in osmotic stress in those species whose osmoregulation systems are adapted to a mineralized environment. Severe osmotic stress can result in osmotic shock which will lead to rapid death.

Osmotic Stress and Shock

Occurs when fish are kept in water with inadequate mineral levels (too high or too low). Osmotic stress affects more seriously fish whose natural habitat is rich in minerals and who are kept in an aquarium with a low mineral level, as osmotic gradients (difference) between the internal fluids of the fish and its surrounding environment (water) increase. Such fish have a less effective osmoregulation than those who are physiologically adapted to water with a low mineral level. That is why they are not able to cope with overloading of osmoregulation.

Osmotic shock can be a result of a breakdown in osmoregulation due to inappropriate chemical composition of the water. It can also be caused by increased permeability of the skin resulting from a disease or trauma. Osmoregulation enables fish to maintain the proper balance of salt and water in the body, which is necessary to create optimal conditions for various physiological and biochemical processes. In all fish species osmoregulation developed in a way that enabled them to maintain the proper balance of salt and water in the water with chemical composition found in their natural habitat. If osmoregulation is disturbed due to adverse conditions (osmotic stress) or a sudden change in the chemical composition of water (osmotic shock), fish might not be able to physiologically cope with it. Chronic osmotic stress can eventually result in fish’s death and osmotic shock can cause death very quickly.

Coronavirus impacts

Dear customers,

Thank you for your support in this unprecedented time.

A lot of industries have been effected by the spread of Coronavirus worldwide and sadly we have not been an exception.

While we are packing and sending out your orders as usual, the demands on Australia Post due to isolation and online shopping are beyond anything experienced before.

During this time and to speed up the delivery of your packages Australia Post have taken the initiative to no longer scan barcodes for tracking. However, even with this initiative there are still significant delays to both express and regular post of up to 21 days.

We appreciate your patience during these trying times and understand the frustration of delays, being a small Australian business we are incredibly grateful for your support.

If you have any questions about the process of your order from our warehouse, please do get in touch as we are happy to update, however any packages that have gone to Australia Post are beyond our control.

Stay safe and happy fish keeping.
