Putting Kalk in the ATO?

[Reverend]

i basically take a cup of vinegar, put 4 tsp of kalk powder in the vinegar, still it up, and then mix it with 4 gallons of ro/di water.

one day i'll make a kalk stirrer using one of those single rotisserie bbq things from canadian tire. for now, i just stir it a bit after i pour the vinegar+kalk mix, wait a bit then plug into the ato setup. kalk reactors are pretty expensive for what they are.

i use this in combo with a 2 part reefdoser. if i had a 3 pump doser, would probably be safer than the float switch + pump method but it would also eventually put a strain on the dosing pump and tubes. for now, the aqualifter just needs cleaning.
