Ok I know I asked years ago if Kalk could be used in salt water. the answer was no.

My new question is can a little bit of salt water... Say 1/4 gallon at 1.026 be mixed with say 25 gal of fresh ROdi and then add 50 teaspoon ok Kalk to this. Let it settle over night then use at top off safely?

What changes with the bit of salt water cause. In lay mans terms. I'm not a chemist.

I ask cause my new mixing station used 1 pump and a bit of left over salt water maybe in the lines. I can flush it out if I have to but if I don't need to worry why throw some water away.

Thanks for your answers.

Any salt water getting into that kalk water is going to precipitate. I'd be afraid of clogging up lines and pumps.
