I was thinking of adding kalk to a doser and dosing that throughout the day or night in addition to my dosing regimen of 2-part. I dose baked Baking soda, calcium chloride, and magnesium chloride / mg sulfate mix.
My alk and calcium I dose equally at around 240 ml per day in my 340 gallon system. If I stop dosing (e.g. run out of alk / cacl while out of town) my alk will drop around 1- 1.5 dkh per day. That would be the minimum I need to dose back to maintain.
I used the kalk calculator to determine, based on water volume how much kalk water it would take to maintain 1-1.5 dkh and wow, that was a lot of kalk water. Gave me warnings not to do that. Lol. I don't plan on doing a kalk stirrir I just wanted to supplement my alk dosing with higher ph. Is this impractical for larger system? Or what combination of kalkwater (on a doser) and 2-part would I dose to achieve optimal results. I've overdosed kalk using top off in a smaller system and will never do that again, a measured doser it is.
