I don’t know, but I can tell you that AFR doesn’t instantly change the dkh of your water. It takes time (hours) for it to break down into alkalinity. I like it this way, more stability.
Yes, that’s the same as other products like Salifert All In One that are based on acetate. Bacteria must metabolize it first.
