An introduction to Kalkwasser (Lime Water)

Kalkwasser (Kalk) is calcium hydroxide when mixed with freshwater becomes a incredible mixture that can add calcium and alkalinity to your reef aquarium in balanced proportions. Kalk solution can be added to auto top off resovoir or even dosed to the tank directly. Kalkwasser could slighly increase the pH soon after dosing which could also help to maintain your tank pH at 8.0 – 8.4 levels, however care should be taken that pH does not overshoot the reccommended highest value of pH 8.4 for reef aquariums.

Dosing Instructions

The amount is dependent on the aquarium and how stocked the aquarium is, a good wat to start would be by measuring the consumtion of calcium and alkalinity of the tank over a few days and they start dosing with a small dose. Alternativly Kalkwasser could also be added to the fresh water resovoir and the dosing will be based on how much water evaporates per day.

Equipment Maintainence

The Kalk solution would have to be replace bi-weekly and should be ideally rinsed out every month to make way for fresh new solution. Calcium carbonate percipatation could be found at the bottom of the stirer dur to percipitation which is normal should also be rinsed out throroughly every month.
