which one is is better? pros and cons of both? which one is easier to set up. im leaning towards kalk reactor for top off.
TheH said:People will tell you to buy a kalk reactor, but I was very interested to find a reefkeeping article by Randy Holmes-Farley where he says he just basically dumps kalk into his 40-gallon auto top off reservoir every 2-3 weeks. He just covers it with a normal lid and found very little drop in potency over that time period.

one more question. where do you feed the top off with kalk to in your sumps. i was planning on letting it top off into the filter sock so it catches all the un dissolved kalk and it can stir with the overflow water. or even next to my media reactor so it can mix in with the pump before the return to the display.
