Dosing Esv Now To Kalkwasser

[Radiography14]

THANKS FOR TAKING THE TIME TO LOOK AT THIS. I am currently using esv for my tank and everything is doing really great. I want to start using top off water with mixed kalkwasser. What i want to do is when i am away on vacation , use a 5 gallon bucket with kalkwasser mixed water to be used as top off. I would have a powerhead on a timer mixing this soulution every 6 hours or so. will this work? the automatic top off system would deliver this water when the water evaporates. What noticeable change will i see keeping my alk and calcium maintained with this new top off system?

I would not stir limewater after the initial mixing. That will accelerate its degradation. Just let it sit.

How will you be controlling the addition rate?

How much B-ionic are you adding each day now?
