DIY - Two Part Calcium and Alkalinity

[waynemah]

Now that my tank is up and running i've started to stock it with some SPS and LPS frags, this brought up the whole "setting up the 2 part" stage of the tank build. After reading the amount of dosing I could get myself into, I want to make life easier/cheaper.

Has anyone in the Edmonton area sourced/experienced any of the materials used in this writeup? http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2006-02/rhf/index.php

I'm thinking this stuff could be made in salt containers making it really easy to re-stock the 1 gallon jugs each couple of weeks.
