Tropic Marin Balling-C & BRS Kalkwasser relationship

[WallyTime7]

@Randy Holmes-Farley - quick question for you.
I've been using BRS 2 part and dosing Balling-C (2x my Ca as recommended, daily).

Now, I've started my kalkwasser stirrer and slowly increasing nightly dosing amounts on low concentration. I've been using the formula 46:1 (46 ml of kalkwasser to every 1ml of CA/ALK each BRS 2 part), monitoring alk and ca to ensure this is a good starting point formula.

My question - if I drop (for this example) 10ml of Alk and CA towards Kalk, how does that affect my balling? Unchanged? Or should I decrease it solely based on the total amount of CA of daily BRS 2 part dosing only?

THANK YOU -

Balling C should be dosed in direct proportion to the calcium chloride and the sodium carbonate. It is not used with kalkwasser, so as you trend the two part down, the Balling Part C also trends down.
