another Calcium Hydroxide thread

OK, I'll start the wheels rolling. It might take a week, it might take 6 months, it might not happen. I just wanted to make sure I could unload a whole pallet before I ordered.

Hey Mark,

I'll take a bag if i can find someone to split it with me locally.
What, you used up the stuff I had for you last time already? ;)

Mark, I still have a 5 gallon bucket of the stuff from last time!
 
Dripping KW is against the ZEOlaw Chapter 3, Section 1, Paragraph 1.

But then since when did I follow all the rules. :lol:

This time of year about 1/3 of my top-off is KW. During the cooler times it's over 3/4. My Litermeter adds about 4g per day year round.

Hey Eric, Yeah some still drip that stuff.... Do zeoheads not drip Kalk?
Serious, I have no clue :D

Haven't looked back yet. That sure was annoying adding and mixing it everyday. If you have one of them Kalk Reactor/Stirrer's then I am sure it would be a lot easier. I guess I will never find out :) Right on Steve......

:lol: well, obviously the thread isn't dead cause it keeps popping up:lol: Like I said so many times. If may or may not happen..I pulled it off once in 03 and flooded So Cal with 1450 pounds of kalk.

You have to look at it from my side. How would you like to bring home 40 bags of Calcium Hydroxide and have it sitting in your garage for months because people flake out on you or don't want to drive that far, wa wa wa... I'll do the same as I did the last time. The cost will be one price the day I bring it home and slowly increase as time goes on, if I get it.
 
Mark... I still have plenty so just let me know.

I'm going to try and make it out there Sat or Sun. Not sure yet as I've not proposed the trip yet to Barb. She'll want to go until she stops and thinks about it. She don't like reefs and the only fish she likes is Halibut. :lol: When Ron and I get together it can last for hours.
I need to check out some books Ron has on FW planted tanks. Ed has a lot of experince in them and his working for Eheim can help me with which way to go with Eheim equipment. I'm going to do that at home so I at least have something to play with there. It's quite and the lighting isn't so dang bright in the livingroom. I haven't had a FW in years and never done a real planted tank before. Maybe a 120 or 150 with a hundred or so small schooling fish.

Join the crowd... before that great buy in 03 I had just bought 12 bags from the Mrs. I used one and sold off the rest since I knew 100# would last me a while. :)

I still got plenty but at this price if Mark can make it happen I'll stick it away for a lifetime supply. It don't go bad. I was paying like 19.95 for a dang plastic jar full before.
