My control valve that control drip kalkwasser to sump has broke and i don't know it because its happen at the night, and the next morning my 10L kalkwasser has empty and that same morning my fishes has strange behavior (look unhealthy maybe bacuse pH blow).

i plan to change the water 100 L(10% from total tank volume (my tank volume 1000L) at 3 day, i mean at 1st day 40litre, 2nd day 30litre and 3rd day 30L..... how do you think ?

thx for the attention

The easiest and quickiest way is to check whether the water are milky or blurish. When you have too much kalk for your tank to handle, you will caused percipitation, this is will cause your water to look as above and you will also see white spots apearring at the side of your tank glass.

I have that happening to me before to the extend that my tank stayed cloudy for 6 hours!. But fortunate to say, all livestocks pulled through. ;)

Try to establish the actual cause of your demised, do not be to quick to conclude that it is the kalk. ;)

In my opinion, if you could provide the results of the water test, it might help in some way for us to suggest a solution to your problem.
