I second the Kalkwasser AND Calcium Reactor... and people... stop buying Kent and other Aquarium Calcium Chloride products... go to a pool & spa place and buy a HUGE bucket for $20!!! EXACTLY the same product.. (77% Calcium Chloride - rest is moisture)
Steve is correct in saying that extended use of Calcium Chloride will eventually skew the chloride balance, hence using Kalk or a Ca Reactor for Calcium maintenance and only using Calcium Chloride for adjustments.. Oh.. one other thing... EPSOM salts to raise Magnesium... also I think helps offset the Chloride imbalance from using Calcium Chloride... but better ask chemist John about these things to be certain.. I hand it over to you Islandreefer...  This hobby doesn't have to be THAT expensive Mark... just wait until you get into $1000 skimmers and $500 powerheads... *YEESH*
