Tank cloudy after adding Kalk.....
Hey guys, i started dripping Kalk two days ago. Roughly 2 gallons per night, which is how much i am evaporation. The concentration of the Kalk is not fully saturated, but rather at 1 teaspoon per gallon.
Anyways, i woke up both morning to see a cloudy layer on the top of the water in my sump. Today, after a few hours it disappeared from the sump, but made my display tank cloudy. My PH has not shifted what so ever, so should i be worried?? Is this normal?? I let the Kalk mix and sit for 12 hours before adding to the tank last night.

The whole tank is cloudy?
This a what happens with overdosing, but the amount you added dopes not sound excessive. The limewater itself was fairly clear?
