Hello Randy:
I was wonder, 2 part dosing consist in Calcium and Alkalinity
Normaly is Calcium Chloride and sodium Carbonate / bicarbonate
Calcium Chloride in Water
"Reaction with water: When calcium chloride is exposed to water, a large amount of heat is liberated, which can cause sputtering and boiling. The end product of this reaction is calcium hydroxide and chlorine gas." source: http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2203504
So
Calcium Hydroxide is Kalkwasser, if so, why not to stay just with kalk? is there any reason beside "is what I can found easy?"
Thanks in advance...(and sorry if my Q. is a bit dumb... )
