Call me crazy but I was considering using kalk w/ high SG makeup water to supplement Ca and alkaliity.
I have a multi doser that slowly over time takes out 150gal/month from the tank and puts in the same amount of fresh salt water in for a continuous water change.
The doser also replaces evaporated water w/ kalk.
I wondered if you increased SG of the water you were putting into the tank you could add more kalk to bring the effective SG back down to 1.025 but in the process supplementing Ca and alk more.
Make sense?
Just wondered how high the SG could be before salts started precipitating out.
