Myka, I think if you drip a small amount in the tank over a period of time, it should actually be fine. I dont think you will affect your pH very much. However I guess your pH should be identified before you give it a shot, haha. As then you can also track it. You could mix a weak solution and let that drip when you do try it at first. With a slow drip (into an area of high waterflow), the reaction will proceed correctly without the need for dabbling with anything other than pure water (use RO water if you can) and the kalk.

Hope that helps

Chris
