Mineral Recharge – GH & KH Water Stabilizer for Koi Ponds
Maintaining stable water chemistry is the foundation of koi health. Mineral Recharge by Krazy Koi Meds is a precision-formulated GH + KH water stabilizer designed to restore essential freshwater minerals commonly stripped from city water, RO systems, and rain-diluted ponds.
Unlike baking soda, which only temporarily raises KH, Mineral Recharge corrects both buffering capacity (KH) and general hardness (GH)—creating stable, resilient water conditions that support koi health, biofilter performance, and long-term pond stability.
This formula supplies calcium, magnesium, potassium, and bicarbonates—the core minerals koi rely on for proper osmoregulation, metabolic function, and stress reduction. By rebuilding the mineral foundation of your pond, Mineral Recharge helps prevent pH crashes, reduces osmotic stress, and supports a more efficient biological filtration system.
Why Use Mineral Recharge?
Stabilizes pH by restoring carbonate hardness (KH)
Builds general hardness (GH) for proper ionic balance
Supplies calcium, magnesium, and potassium
Supports biofilter efficiency and nitrifying bacteria
Reduces stress caused by mineral-poor water
No sodium chloride. No fillers. No unnecessary additives.
Mineral Recharge is ideal for:
Soft or low-alkalinity ponds
RO or rain-diluted water systems
New pond setups
Seasonal resets and water changes
This product is not a treatment and contains no medications or heavy metals. It is designed to correct foundational water chemistry so koi can thrive in stable, balanced conditions.
Dosing Instructions
Standard Dose: 1 cup per 1,000 gallons
Raises approximately +30 ppm GH and +30 ppm KH
If KH is near zero, split the dose into two applications 6–12 hours apart
For maintenance, use ¼–½ dose monthly or after water changes based on test results
Ingredients
Potassium Bicarbonate
Calcium Chloride
Magnesium Sulfate
Best Used With
For enhanced trace mineral availability, slime coat support, and water polishing, pair Mineral Recharge with Koi Klay Boost. Mineral Recharge corrects water chemistry; Koi Klay Boost enhances mineral availability and water quality.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Mineral Recharge used for?
Mineral Recharge is used to restore general hardness (GH) and carbonate hardness (KH) in koi ponds. It stabilizes pH, supports biofilter efficiency, and corrects mineral-deficient water commonly caused by soft city water, RO systems, or heavy rainfall.
How is Mineral Recharge different from baking soda?
Baking soda only raises KH and adds sodium. It does nothing to correct GH or restore calcium and magnesium.
Mineral Recharge corrects both GH and KH, supplying calcium, magnesium, potassium, and bicarbonates to rebuild stable, balanced water chemistry instead of providing a temporary buffer.
How often should I use Mineral Recharge?
Initial correction: Use once when GH or KH is low
Maintenance: ¼–½ dose every 3–4 weeks or after water changes
Always test GH and KH before repeating full doses
Mineral Recharge is not a weekly additive.
Can I overdose Mineral Recharge?
Overuse can raise GH and KH higher than necessary. Always test water parameters before dosing and follow the recommended amounts. More is not better when it comes to water chemistry.
Is Mineral Recharge safe for koi, goldfish, and plants?
Yes. Mineral Recharge contains no medications, no copper, and no sodium chloride. It is safe for koi, goldfish, biological filters, and aquatic plants when used as directed.
Does Mineral Recharge replace Koi Klay Boost?
No. The two products serve different purposes.
Mineral Recharge corrects measurable water chemistry (GH & KH)
Koi Klay Boost enhances trace mineral availability, slime coat quality, and water clarity
They work best together, not as replacements.
Can I use Mineral Recharge during winter?
Yes. Mineral Recharge can be used year-round as long as the pond is unfrozen and water circulation is active. Stable mineral levels are especially important during colder months when koi are more sensitive to stress.
Is this product a treatment for disease or parasites?
No. Mineral Recharge is not a medication and does not treat disease or parasites. It corrects foundational water chemistry so koi are less stressed and better able to maintain health.
Do I need test kits to use Mineral Recharge?
Yes. For best results, test GH and KH before dosing and periodically after. Mineral Recharge is designed for informed use, not blind dosing.
What happens if my KH is zero?
If KH is near zero, split the initial dose into two applications spaced 6–12 hours apart. This prevents sudden pH shifts as buffering is restored.
Does Mineral Recharge contain fillers?
No. Mineral Recharge contains only functional ingredients that directly affect water chemistry. No fillers, no bulking agents, and no unnecessary additives.
