Kalkwasser Equivalent of 2 Part

[Aaron Atkinson]

hello. I am dosing BRS 2 part in my tank now. Reading a reply from Randy got me thinking last night you/he mentioned using only kalkwasser to maintain his alkalinity and calcium. So, what would be the kalkwasser x water mix ratio to have equivalent strength, for lack of a better word, to match the 2 part recipe I'm using now?

Kalkwasser seems about the miracle additive...I figure this would be a far simpler way unless the solution volume is in excess of the current volume I'm using.

A little background about my condition: 50 gal DT with sump, dosing 107 mL soda ash and calcium daily, each.

Thanks in advance.

Just read Randy's post stating a 46:1 potency ratio (2 part : full strength kalkwasser)

Sounds good to me.
