Sorry Monocus, but I disagree... I use a syringe purchased from Shoppers drug mart and use a Kalk paste with no issues. Remember it isn't actually pastey, but a thick liquid. Also the nice thing is that because it is thicker than lemon juice, it will stay in place even when there is flow in the tank.
