Need to be educated.

So mixing a teaspoon or so per gallon and letting it settle out would give you , saturated ?

That would be unsaturated. It's about 2 tsp per gallon. I dump some in periodically as needed. Stir it up and let what has precipitated or didn't dissolve settle to the bottom ready to be stirred up on the next refill.
 
Update and question.

Ok, over the past two weeks I have been adding kalc via dosing pump. Kalc is 10 reaspons per 5 gals at the rate now of 1600 mls / 24 hours.

Ph is 8.18, supported by outside air going through c02 absorber and being diffused into three wood diffuser as well as the skimmer.
Without the outsude air ph loses about 1.5.

Carb dkH 9.18 with +2 mill of redsea 2 part carb being added
Mg is at 1280 with 25 ml being dosed ecery day
Ca is 406 with +2 ml every day.

Here is the question. The above values have been hovering at these values for about a week or more

Have I reached some sort of upper limit with Kalc on Carb. Hardness and Ca ? Do I increase two part dosing in addition to Current kalc dosing level ?

Thanks in advance
