Re: Meeting Topics & DIY how to's If you want to discuss a Kalkwasser drip/auto top off then hubris007 aka cj is the man. I think that kalk is good, its basically limewater that increases alkalinity and keeps calcium up. However it can be overdone and done improperly so I tend to lean toward using the two part supplements like bionic or c balance mainly because it is alot easier for my clients! I have noticed among reefers that either you swear by it or dont use it at all! There is no casual kalk user! I think this would be a great topic for discussion and one that I think someone like cj or another club member who uses it all the time should spearhead!
I like the idea of water testing and proper knowledge of what we are shooting for in a certain reef type would be the best next meeting topic. Im not sure that it is a DIY thing but think it would be a good meeting topic that might keep us on a central track during the meeting!
