Hey guys just some info here, bringing some of my Homebrewing equipment/ideas over the reef tank world. I have one of these laying around but smaller (5Gallon) and have been using these to mix my Kalkwasser in. Since i replace my 2.5 gallon ATO water every 3-4 days, i mix in my kalk on sundays for 5 gallons. An hour later after the jelly stuff settles at the bottom you pull that off into a bucket. then you are just left with pure Kalk ATO water. So when I need to refill the container i just pull the plug and refill. You ight be able to find it other placeless cheaper but this seems like a good deal.

here is the link:

Pretty fancy. Nice but fancy. lol

I just use a 5 gallon bucket that I put a 1/4" valve in about 1-1/2" up from the bottom.

Yeah I just do it this way to mix it up all at one time, so when I need to refill my ATO jug I just pull open the tank and fill.
