Kalk in ATO

[rad1687]

I would like to start adding kalk to my ATO reservoir. I currently run a power head in my RODI bucket to keep the water moving, will I need to remove this in order to allow kalk to settle, or should I keep it mixing? Thanks!

Remove the powerhead so the kalk can settle. You will also need to raise your ato pump up off the bottom of the reservoir so you don't suck up any of the solids.

I do the same thing. Yes remove the power head you use to circulate the top off water you want the kalk to settle.
