Kalk Drip?

[reeferious]

correction was bumbling around tank in basement checking unnecessarily on tank critters' health looked and realized not 3/8 but something smaller than 1/4 smaller air intake tube needed to maintain partial vaccuum in bottle.

Ok, thanks. I am no good with this kind of stuff but through trial and error I will figure it out. I am more of a visual person

I'd like some pics too, as Im in the dark here. I havn't used kalk before, but may want to one day.

On my previous tank I used to make 5 gallons of kalk and pump it in using a dosing pump.

Now, I have a Kalk reactor and still use a dosing pump. I've never linked Kalk to evaporative replacement. I've always wanted to control it separately.

If you don't want to make your own I went to our lfs and bought a container called "The Little Dripper" it is used for reptiles and such but can also be used for a drip. Then we just added a needle valve, mix your kalk and there you go.

Yeah this is kind of the idea for me. I don't like adding it in my top off anymore because I just don't have a lot of control over it.
