Cal/Alk 2 part dosing

[MikeyZo]

I’ve been using coralife’s 2 part system because it came with my Biocube. I don’t have an issue with it, but I’m wondering if there are any other brands that are better for whatever reason. I know Brightwell and Seachem make ones… what do most of you use?

A two part system involves trust that it is made correctly. I personally would not elect any of those.

There are brands that I trust, such as ESV or Tropic Marin. DIY is also very popular and reliable:

I'm old school and use Randy's older version of two part:

isn’t a BRS soda ash and Calcium powder fine (but more expensive)?
