    You can get by with boiling some RO water and injecting them, or mixing up some kalk paste. Kalk paste has always worked best for me, but I can see my alkalinity raise after treating only a few at a time, and I have twice the water volume as your tank, so be careful and only do a few or so if...

    Return Pump Poll...

    Identify Cyano Algae
