    Alk still low with Kalk

    Thanks everyone for your opinions. I will try dripping it into my skimmer. Should I just drill a hole on the top and let it drip down? Is there anything that I should do?

    Alk still low with Kalk

    That is what I thought I read in one of your posts BangGuy. I thought my ALK levels should be around 9 - 11 dkh? So I am ok? No need to change what I started?

    Alk still low with Kalk

    Hello all, I am dripping kalk with very good results. Cal is 420 but my alk is about 8.3 dkh and Mag is 1350. Why would my Alk still be low? Do I always need to supplement more alk when dosing Kalk?

    Ok so then I guess I need a UV glass. How should I incorporate this into my tank? Should I lay it on top of the tank? Should I mount it somehow below the bulbs? please give me some ideas.... Pictures would be great if anyone has any.

    You know I have heard similar but I have also hear otherwise. The place where I got the bulbs from even say that they are only = to a little more. Not as much as everyone thinks. Does anyone else have information on this?
