another test using caribsea, and a few other types including silica and lime showed that a tank left on its own with no additives added will crash in both alk and Ca. the silical tank crashed after 1 month, the lime after 2.5 months and the Caribsea after 3 months..
BULL, my tanks have been running for more than a year, and I add nothing. Nothing has ever crashed.
