Default Dolomite Lime

Hi,

Well, Calcium carbonate and Magnesium Carbonate do not dissolve in normal salt water levels very easily (pH is high).

It is the same story for crush coral and any other calcium based substrates. The dissolution of calcium in crush coral is very slow. The dissolution is so slow that it can almost be consider insoluable.
