I then mix it with water, and I know water is safe for my tank in the amount I need to dissolve the kalk in. Now I can't say the sae for vinegar. I use vinegar with kalk, around 80ml. This seems safe. It's a documented process, condoned by chemists.
Did I mention $10/yr?
At the very least, I would run it by Randy over at RC. He can tell you if you're right or wrong, and offer solutions to your questions. Just seems like a lot of work to do something that isn't a lot of work. Know what I mean?
