Just what is it you would test? I don't understand what you talking about testing?

PS Kalk is meant to be dripped slowly by gravity, Adding it to a ATO could add too much too fast depending on the ATO you have. Remember it has a PH of 14, Without any Vinegar and with it's even higher. On a tank as small as yours I would drip small amounts only by gravity not with a ATO JMO

once you get yout setup be sure to secure your lines that drip/dose into the tank so that they don't fall out and you dose the carpet. I don't know how much I need to dose the carpet and the wood trim on the back of the tank but apparently i need to does it a lot. I think i need a bigger 2 part pump. Oh well my parameters are back in check after dosing a combo of recipe A and B. One key element when you skimmer is not performing has always been "how is my alk.....and why is that line for my alk buffer on the carpet in the back of my stand..."

i was planning on dripping it a drop per second in my sump to keep the water level and that is how the Kalk would end up going into the system
