Sk8r Staff member RC Mod Nov 3, 2006 #2 I put dkh buffer into my topoff reservoir, enough for 5 days, which is my evaporation rate re that bucket. The calcium I hand-add daily.

Travis L. Stevens New member Nov 3, 2006 #4 I add limewater with my top off and I use Ca/Alk buffer on an as needed basis.
D David Grigor Registered Member Premium Member Nov 3, 2006 #5 No dripping but the closest thing on the list. Use 3 dosing pumps ( Litermeter III with 2 remote pumps ). 1 to add kalkwasser for all evaporation. The other 2 to dose 2 part CA / ALK recipes. My tank consumption is 50ml or each per day of the Randy's. I used to do as Travis but I do notice an improved with the more constant and consistant levels ( more noticably with SPS than LPS though ) .
