Kalk question
i tried to start dosing kalk ( just with a stock solution and a drip at night) and i guess my cal and alk werent balanced...my calcium is 340and my alk was 15DKH after two nights of kalk...i am trying to get the calcium up while letting the alk drop naturally...then i guess i can start redoing the kalk...it just seems like i am using absolutely nothing when it comes to kalk though, and the alk is still climbing...i put in about 2.5grams/litre of water and shake like crazy...allow to settle then drip...
i lose about 1.5/2 litres a day in evap...so i was doing 1 litre of RO during the day and 1 litre of kalk at night... i dont think i can but should i try to make the Kalk solution less potent? or will things stay in check with the kalk once they are balanced with the two part? reason i wanted to start doesing kalk was to help with phophates...i have a PO4 reactor...but since i just started it i only put in half a cup of media...i am going to change it out next water change and put in 1 cup or so to help with the PO4....
