for those dosing kalk, what do you use and how do you run?
I was dosing ATI Pro 2 part, the alk part of the 2 was raising alkalinity but because it was sodium bicarbonate based (at least that's my guess) it had little effect on PH. I switched to calcium hydroxide and that has had a more noticeable impact on PH as well as alk. During all this "dialing in" had several algae events and shut down dosing all together for a while. Now I am dosing Mrs. Wages pickling lime in small amounts 48 times in 24 hours. I am considering switching to Kalk +2 (brightwell) and dosing only at night after lights go out. I was wondering if anyone is using the kalk +2 and how everyone else that's dosing kalk goes about it.
