what would I need to set up an inline valve to open or close the line that feeds kalk to my tank

I have a break out box for the apex. I need some type of in line valve that can be turned on and off. perhaps I do not need the bread out box and just plug the inline valve into the energy bar ..

suggestions please

thanks

Sounds like a job for a solenoid, is the kalk gravity fed?

I've never used one so I can't recommend any specific brand. I'm sure someone else can help out though.
