For reference, the Tanganyika dose raises dGH by 8.8 units. The Malawi dose raises dGH by 4.4 units. The Victoria dose raises dGH by 3 units.We recommend the following GH ranges:Tanganyika: 3–5.5 meq/L (8–14 dGH)Malawi: 1.5–3meq/L (4–8 dGH)Victoria: 1–2 meq/L (3–6 dGH)TIPS: Use when setting up an aquarium and when making water changes.
