So I just made the mistake of overdosing too much kalk slurry in one go and caused alk and [Ca] to drop a lot. Theres tonnes of other reefers who've posted about making the same mistake, and thanks to them and their advice I've been able to minimize the damage by dosing vinegar.
However, one...

I have a Kalk stirrer that’s programmed to stir one a day. And dose several times a day, how do I input a program to pause the dose for a 30 minutes after stirring and then restart the dosing?
Up for sale is an Avast Marine K2 Kalk Stirer (larger one). I purchased it in November 2023 and have the original packaging. I will send pictures upon request. I stopped using it because I need the space under my tank, so I ran a water line to a brute can outdoors and just have my doser pull...
I want to set some parameters to control Kalk and AB Dosing in DOS. Curious if the below will work?
I want to turn the Kalk off if the PH is too high and the CA and Alk dos off if the Kalk is keeping up...

Long story short, I'm in the middle of moving and found the old Kalk reactor in storage.
It is a Two Little Fishes Kalk reactor 300 and I never really liked it. It never seemed to agitate the Kalk and was a glorified container. Money is tight with the move, so I decided to modify this one...
I'm considering swapping from Tropic Marin's Carbocalcium to kalkwasser. I read in my searches for similar threads, that All For Reef is 25x more potent than kalk. I'm assuming that carbocal is the same potency as AFR. If I'm dosing 41.5ml of carbocalcium, that would equal about 1,037ml/4 cups...

Hello all!
I have a 135 gallon SPS dominated tank with 50 Gallon sump and 40 gallon frag tank, I set it up using Triton Core 7 with DOS pumps and a Trident and it's worked very well to this point. The problem is cost, as the demand has increased so has the uptake, as of a week ago I was dosing...
If anyone has a DOS or Kalk stirrer they are willing to sell I’m looking to buy. I’m in north Texas, can meet locally if not local must be willing to ship.
Im about ready to start dosing saturated kalk to my 65 gallon reef. Really only need a single head, trying to decide between these 2 dosing pumps. My plan is continuous dosing at a very slow rate throughout the day. May try only at night. We will see. But which would you pick and why?
Hello,
I’m new to Kalkwasser and I plan to incorporate the Avast Kalk stirrer into my current system. The tank is fairly new so water changes are keeping up for now. I originally bought the Kamoer X1 Pro-T pump for this, but since then I’ve decided to buy a Kamoer F4 Pro so that I have the...
My kalk chamber ran out and needed to be refilled. Typically I fill it up 4-5" at a time so it lasts a bit over a month. I'd like to boost my pH & alk more than what it provides because evaporation limits how much I can dose. Using a kalk slurry it's appealing for a few reasons. Namely, I'm...
Hello so I have a 75G mixed reef but mainly SPS dominant I have a lot of frags not yet mini colonies only about 3 are but not very big anyways. I was running my pH 7.8-8.05 before anything then I purchased a co2 scrubber and recirculating it I’ve raised my pH to a low of 8.0-8.2 with a high of...
Hi All
I have a 2 year old 425XL SPS dominant tank.
I currently use 16.8mL of Calc (RedSea Foundation) and 96mL of Alk (RHF's SodaAsh recipe) daily.
PH runs from between 7.97 to 8.18.
I want to increase PH to boost growth, so want to dose Kalk at night (and day if needed).
My question is...
solved: I realized when I reorganized all my wires and hung the DOS etc the dos for CA was hooked up backwards. Ugh
240g, 300system. 4 months old geared towards sps. 40 frags and 20 fish.
So I’ve set up a doser for Kalk though a Kalk reactor (pump type) and when I had it off for a few weeks I...
