The obvious solution to me would be to use neither and employ a system which adds the exact amount of each in a balanced amount to meet your system requirements.
Could you elaborate on this a bit for me please.
What kind of system do you use ?
Thanks

I was hinting towards an automated dosing system which will add each element separately and can be adjusted to match the requirements of your system.

I currently use a Ca reactor but would like to upgrade to a dosing system, only thing in my way is money and time.

Don't find my reactor a whole lot out of balance. Can go months and months before I notice a little slip in Ca relative to Alk. Just give a single hit a of the Ca I have around anyways to supplement my IO salt (along with MagFlake) and I'm good.
