It quickly dissolves to remineralize purified water sources, maintaining a precise GH/KH ratio of 1.0/0.5, supporting shrimp health in neutral pH environments. Produced in Germany with over 25 years of aquaristics expertise, this 200g pack treats up to 1,000 liters, ensuring consistent water quality for thriving shrimp colonies. ## Description Shrimp Mineral has been especially designed for the preparation of neutral aquarium water for keeping and breeding shrimp. It re-mineralises e.g. RO water, rainwater, fully desalinated water etc., raising total hardness (dGH) and carbonate hardness (KH) at a ratio of dGH/KH: 1.0/0.5. Especially shrimp from habitats with a neutral pH do very well in water prepared with this mineral salt. Shrimp Mineral contains all the important minerals and trace elements your shrimp need for their well-being, an intensive colouration, successful breeding and healthy growth. It also furthers plant growth and the microbial regeneration of biological filter substrates. Instructions of use Mix with water outside of the aquarium. Shrimp Mineral dissolves almost completely within seconds, and the water is ready for use at once. Please make sure that any undissolved particles go into your tank, too. Close container after every use at once as this mineral salt absorbs moisture. Dosage Use Shrimp Mineral to re-mineralise RO water, rainwater, fully desalinated water etc. to reach a total hardness of about 6 dGH and/or a conductance of about 300 (Microsiemens). For this purpose, an evenly full measuring spoon (about 2 g) to 10 litres of water is sufficient. Measuring spoon enclosed. ## Features - MINERAL SALT: Specially developed for keeping and breeding shrimps. Produces neutral aquarium water and is used to remineralise e.g. osmosis water, rainwater & demineralised water. Contains all important minerals for shrimps. - APPLICATION: Stir the mineral salt into water outside the aquarium and then add to the aquarium (1 measuring spoon to 10 litres). The Shrimp Mineral GH/KH+ Salt dissolves in the water within a few seconds. - CONTENTS: 200g - Mineral GH/KH+. Sufficient for up to 1,000 litres of aquarium water. It raises the total hardness (°dGH) & carbonate hardness (KH) in a ratio of °dGH/KH: 1.0/0.5. Particularly suitable for shrimps from habitats (pH value approx. 7). - QUALITY: Our minerals are produced with carefully selected ingredients in our German factory. Over 25 years of expertise in aquaristics flow into each of our products. - NOTE: Undissolved particles can be safely added to the aquarium when mixing. Close the can tightly after each use - otherwise the salt will quickly absorb moisture. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B06Y581DC4 | | Best Sellers Rank | #23,030 in Pet Supplies ( See Top 100 in Pet Supplies ) #215 in Aquarium Water Treatments | | Brand | SALTYSHRIMP | | Brand Name | SALTYSHRIMP | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 520 Reviews | | Item Form | Powder | | Item Weight | 200 Grams | | Liquid Volume | 10 Liters | | Manufacturer | GlasGarten | | Manufacturer Part Number | SSM-NSM-200 | | Model Number | SSM-NSM-200 | | Target Species | Shrimp | | Unit Count | 200.0 Grams | ## Product Details - **Brand:** SALTYSHRIMP - **Liquid Volume:** 10 Liters - **Item Weight:** 200 Grams - **Item Form:** Powder - **Manufacturer:** GlasGarten ## Images ![Shrimp Mineral GH/KH+ 200G - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81yGQ7-pHNL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will this also raise ph? Neos need 7ph and ro water comes out with 6.5** A: No it won’t raise the ph in the water! This puts minerals back in the water especially if you have shrimps, crayfish, snails and plants! Read the instructions carefully with the amount to the gallons your aquarium is! I use it all the time just for my tropical fish which brightens their color! Think of it as giving them a vitamin! I also love Seachem products! I’ve had aquariums since I’m 8 years old and their products are amazing! Get Seachem Equilibrium for mineral &Gh balance! Seachem Prime OMG!! Amazing to keep your biological filter healthy along with Pristine! To make it easier to keep a steady 7.0 ph balance get Seachem Neutral Regulator 7.0 All the best! **Q: Can i use this on a ro planted betta tank?** A: Yes, if the GH and KH of your water are lower than the recommended parameters for Bettas, as is usually the case with RO/DI water, then mixing this with your water changes will raise the GH and KH accordingly. Do not add to your top off water, though. Unless you know for sure that your tank's minerals have depleted, then only pure RODI or distilled water should be used when you're topping off your water levels due to evaporation. **Q: Does this have calcium in it? Shrimp and snails need a calcium supplement so I was wondering if this will be sufficient.** A: It adds all important minerals to your water. I would use a dietary supplement that is designed to provide extra nutrients so the shrimp have a healthy molt. I highly recommend the brand “Glass Garten” shrimp food. Bacteria ae is a must to add biofilm the shrimp need to live. Best of luck. **Q: Can this product cause an increase in ammonia and nitrites?** A: No just a dirty filter that needs to be maintained! Fish waste and uneaten food causes ammonia and not doing water changes! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by U***E on February 15, 2026* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by A***R on January 13, 2026* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by W***L on March 23, 2021* ## Frequently Bought Together - SaltyShrimp - Shrimp Mineral GH/KH+ 200G - API GH & KH TEST KIT Freshwater Aquarium Water Test Kit, 2.5 oz. - GlasGarten Bacter AE Shrimp (70g) | Nutrients for Live Freshwater Shrimp Food/Aquarium Water (Neocaridina, Amano, Red Cherry, Rili) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/81100642-shrimp-mineral-gh-kh-200g](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/81100642-shrimp-mineral-gh-kh-200g) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-04*
