I have now installed my Drs Foster (and his buddy) $199 Kalk reactor inline with my auto top off for my 29 gallon tank with 29 gallon sump. Now I have a question on how much Kalk and how often to add.
The directions that came with it seem like a bad conversion to english so I want to doublecheck (it says add 2 cups of Kalk??!!).
How much Kalk should I really add each time I change out and how often should I refill it? Also, what is the best way to do the recharging of the reactor...do I remove and rinse out the entire reactor each time or do I just add a cup of kalk powder? Simple directions would sure be appreciated.
And one other question...what is the best brand of kalk? I am hearing that Rowakalk or Warner Marine (with Magnesium) is the best brands.
Ok and one more...Should I be adding Calcium or other supplements too? (i.e. Iodine, Magnesium)
Thanks for all advice on this one
