BRS Kalkwasser dosing calculation

Robin316us · Sep 17, 2023

Hello all. I'm trying to find out the BRS Kalkwasser dosing calculator.

https://reef.diesyst.com/chemcalc/chemcalc.html

I couldn't find the BRS Kalwasser option in the "Product Dropdown list"

I want to stop using the 2 part dosing and depend on the Kalwasser.

According to Randy it is difficult to make direct conversion, but here's the link to what he says:

Limewater

Kalkwasser is a German word. Limewater is the same word in English. Brands all give the same saturated potency.

Ok I've entered the values in the calculations. and this is what I get.
I couldn't find in the Magnesium " Product Dropbox = Limewater ". Does it mean that I need to dose Mag separately?

I'm currently dosing ATI Essential Pro - Part I =35ml and Part II = 45ml.
how can I calculate how much kalk to dose?

currently, pH is 8.05 - 8.28

You need about 45x of BRS part 1 or part 2.
Assuming that ATI is similar to BRS(and I do not know that), I would start with1200-1500ml, which sounds just about right.
