I modified my dosing pump to turn at a slower speed. That reduces the concentration of additives when they combine with the tank water and prevents or at least reduces the amount of precipitation.

I always figured the ideal model for dosing multi-part mixes is continual dosing throughout the day, so this is a nice little upgrade :)

Its the model my Ca reactor runs on, and while you can actually get daily swings due to alk uptake during the day vs night, this could be corrected for.
