Mitch, I think you pointed out what may be happening. Deb is adding water with less Ca than the tank. The solution is trying to reach an equilibrium and the reaction favors the dissolution of the aragonite. In my tank I don't notice any sand dissolving because My Ca is forced higher with a Ca reactor.
I could be way wrong, but I think the idea is sound!
