Default Domolite lime and other lost arts...

Hey Victor,

Colour ?
Ok that is the colors of the individual compounds, what about in the ratios found in carib sea? How do they interact when the bond to form the aragonite? I am no chemist but I assume that once you molecularly bond a few different compounds they will interact and some properties will change(ie color). And I have no prob with the color of dolomite of caribsea. Once it is in my tank(caribsea) it looks nice and white. That is the least of my concerns. But it seems to bother you..

You have to give it credit that Domolite has been use for a while
Until you had brought it up I hadn't heard of it. I have concidered using silica but not dolomite. To me it is a lawn care product used to raise the pH of the soil. Yes it is white but that is where my thoughts ended.

I guess time will tell who is right
It's not a matter of right or wrong to me. It's is it safe for general use? As I look at it right now it is a game of russian roulette. You may be doing ok but what about the person who has jsut started and loses everything due to chemical contamination of their tank? If it is a fully stocked tank that was switched over and all livestock was lost what do we say then?
