Aptasia mix with pickling lime?

[jfingers8]

My wife just picked up a bag of pickling mix at walmart. Is that the same stuff as pickling lime or is it different?

Tell us the ingredients, it should just be calcium hydroxide.

What are you asking with reference to the Aptasia??

pickling lime is food grade calcium hydroxide aka kalk (just 10x cheaper). injecting into glass anenome's kills them.

The only one that's kalk is the one marked pickling LIME..... see other pickling mixes here
