Find a productProduct description
ADA Soft Water 200 ml is intended for freshwater aquarium keepers whose tap water is alkaline or has high carbonate hardness (KH). It addresses a specific problem: in such water, aquatic plant growth slows down, and this conditioner brings the water to a mildly acidic range.
Why it matters
- Adjusts water quality to mild acidity, which is the stated purpose of the product.
- Targets two water parameters at once: high pH and high carbonate hardness (KH), both linked to slowed plant growth.
- Dosing is measured: one press of the dispenser (1 ml) per 10 l of aquarium water or water used for water changes.
- Made by ADA (Aqua Design Amano), a brand founded by Takashi Amano, whose name is closely associated with the natural aquarium style.

What it works with
The product is designed for freshwater aquariums in the aquatic exotics category, particularly tanks with live plants where alkaline or hard water limits growth. Dosing is calculated per 10 l, so the required amount scales with tank volume. It is applied to aquarium water directly or to the water prepared for regular water changes.

Frequently asked questions
It adjusts the water to a gentle acidity, which means it lowers the pH. The dosing is 1 ml (one press of the dispenser) per 10 L of aquarium water.
Plant growth can be inhibited in water with a high pH or high carbonate hardness (KH). This product is intended for that kind of water, so checking your pH and KH first will show whether it is relevant to your tank.
The same dose applies to water used for changes: 1 ml (one press of the dispenser) for every 10 L of water.
The bottle holds 200 ml, and at 1 ml per 10 L that is enough for about 2,000 L of water treated at the recommended dose.
It is designed for water with a high pH or high KH. Testing your tap or tank water before buying will tell you whether your water falls into that category.
