Morgan Posted November 15, 2003 Share Posted November 15, 2003 Don't know where you can get it but think it will easier if you just buy kalkwasser The impurities it contain is much higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member ai[k²]wan Posted November 15, 2003 Author SRC Member Share Posted November 15, 2003 ya kalkwasser is certainly better, but i tot that if there is a cheaper and easier( lets say any coldstorage sells ) y not know about it, so at least got alternative.

Morgan Posted November 15, 2003 Share Posted November 15, 2003 It is food grade.......too much impurities......long term usage you don't know what will happen. Unless someone has tried it out on the sps tank and after a few year can report that everything is still fine.....then it would be a cheap alternative.

Achilles Tang Posted November 15, 2003 Share Posted November 15, 2003 With the price of kalkwasser coming down these days, why even consider a lesser grade form of calcium hydroxide? I am using Reefez kalkwasser now, good stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
