Brightwell Aquatics Caridina GH+ is a specialized remineralization solution that restores vital minerals to reverse osmosis, deionized, or extremely soft freshwater. Designed specifically for Caridina shrimp species and freshwater biotope aquariums, this formula replenishes calcium, magnesium, potassium, and sodium in optimal ratios to support osmoregulation, molting, nerve and muscle function, and plant nutrient uptake. Ideal for aquariums using purified water or natural soft water sources, Caridina GH+ allows hobbyists to precisely control the general hardness (GH) and total dissolved solids (TDS) without altering KH or pH. This ensures that sensitive species such as Bee shrimp, and fish from tropical forest streams, thrive in stable, mineral-rich environments that mirror their native waters. The product can be used for preparing new aquarium setups, rebalancing parameters after large water changes, or maintaining stability in low-mineral systems that rarely receive top-offs. Caridina GH+ does not include buffering compounds—so if KH is needed, pair it with Brightwell’s Florin Delta KH+ or use NeoTiger KH+/GH+ instead. Formulated using extensive research on the chemistry of tropical forest river systems, Caridina GH+ helps hobbyists maintain long-term aquatic health and supports both livestock vitality and aquatic plant performance.

Taylor Dolan –
yes!
good!! my hardness was WAYYY too low for my tank because my water is terrible. this boosted everything over a weeklong period and none of my shrimps seemed stressed at all. they are way more colorful now too!!it does leak a little bit so make sure to shake out the excess before storing. the pump is great otherwise and there is a lot of product.

I guess itâs working I just added 2 pumps to my 20 gallon and never used it again lol crystal shrimp are all alive and healthy
Emmanuel Gonzalez –
My shrimp look healthy
My sulawesi shrimp are still alive, so I can only assume it is a very good product. Supposedly sulawesi shrimp are very hard to keep alive. I think not all shrimp require the same water parameters so I would research what they need first. I bought this because it was available at the time and I made it work for my setup. It’s been over a month now.
