Kalkwasser

[zulu_principle]

My brother is in Boise and forwarded this:

Next Boise Meeting:

Warner Marine is a company that develops laboratory grade reef additives. My interest was held when I recently heard Jon warn about adding Kalkwasser to our tanks because of the large amount of lead that it contains. Seems as though the FDA standards for food grade pickling lime (which is exactly the same chemical as Kalkwasser (calcium carbonate)) is probably not sufficient to protect our reef tanks from lead poisoning. This is just one example why laboratory grade additives are important and Jon will send up a red flag about many other things such as the salt we all use.
