In this video I install the Avast Marine K1 Kalk stirrer to start dosing kalkwasser in my reef tank. I’m using the TUNZE ATO pump to feed the stirrer.
If you have a small tank or frequent evaporation fluctuations you will want to feed your Kalk Stirrer with a dosing pump (peristaltic pump). In...

Hey guys, I’m selling a Avast K1 kalk stirer and a jumbo co2 scrubber. K1 stir works great used about 6 months but now I have kalk in my garage.

Does anyone know where to acquire either an exact replacement or an equivalent motor for my old Aqua Medic KS1000 Kalk stirrer/reactor? Photo below... I've tried googling all the information listed on the motor and there are no exact matches that come up, so I thought I'd ask on R2R! I've...
Used Reef Octo Kalk Stirrer KS-100. Great condition, workhorse of a stirrer.
No longer using, changed to a CO2 scrubber to raise pH.
$100
Prefer local pickup.
I have to go, new job and new city. For sale as the system comes down. Some items might delay as I still have livestock.

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.
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...
Hi everyone, I've got a kalk question. I want to eventually get a kalk stirer but it's out of my budget at the moment but I want to start dosing kalk because I dose 2 part and it's expensive, also my ph peaks at 8.1 but is not very stable so I want to get my average ph higher. Could I take some...
I am currently using Kalk in my ATO.
I am wanting to mix the Kalk and then put it in a dosing container and use a dosing pump.
The tank is 40 gallons and uses about one gallon of top off water a day. My current use it the minimal recommendation usage. 1/2 tsp for one gallon.
Has anyone tried...
Does anyone know if there is a way to quiet the motor? It's working properly and it is enclosed in the motor compartment.
Thank you and Happy reefing :)

Newbie to SW. I have a RSR450 and want to start to dosing Kalk the easy way. Currently I am dripping out of a milk jug about a gallon a day per 1/2 TSP. I like to build and tinker so I would like to put in a Avast K1 you build it kit. Can I push ATO RODI out of the ATO chamber into the Avast...
Provided there is enough kalkwasser in a stirrer, is the liquid in the kalk stirrer maintained at 100% saturation?
If it is, does it matter the amount of kalkwasser you add to the stirrer? The slurry just reducing slowly as fresh RODI is added via the ATO until you need to add more Kalkwasser?
I am in the process of deciding which Kalk dosing method to use. I am leaning towards the Avast line of stirrers. From what I gather I can add a few teaspoons of Kalk and that should last me a few days, hopefully 1-2 weeks based on evaporation amount and Kalk added to stirrer. Id prefer this...
Bubble Magus 3 head doser purchased from Aquarium Supply as a used unit. Never got around to using it. Still in the box for $150. Ecotech MP40Wes. mfg date 7/7/2010. As you can see in the pic, the wiring has pulled out of the housing as most of them normally do. Does not affect operation. Wet...
Hello!
I'm looking for a Avast kalkwasser reactor, new or used, as long as the motor still works and it doesn't leak.
Shoot me a message with a price and pictures if you have one you'd like to part with.
Thanks!
