You mean limewater?
Yes, limewater is one of the "secrets" to growing big gnarly SPS, imo. There are unknown benefits, beyond calcium and alkalinity, that we don't fully understand yet.
I've had the best luck running the ATO through a limewater reactor than any other method.
Not sure how there could be unknown benefits, especially compared to a diy two part using sodium hydroxide, but as long as limewater meets demand, its a great choice.
