Hey all,
Hopefully this is the right place on the forum to ask.
I have been using kalk on my ATO and frankly that just doesn’t work for me. It’s completely inconsistent and I can certainly attribute this for random losses on occasion. Last week I lost 2 really nice across due to a spike and I am over this mess. I have used 2 part in the past with dosing pumps but I want serious results.
I have been considering zeovit for a couple of months but that reactor cost is ridiculous. Where do companies get off charging 300-600 dollars for an acrylic tube with a handle you have to bounce? (I’m looking at you Korallen-Zucht) It’s not a smart investment IMO for what it is… I get that I lose money to alk spikes with kalk but that doesn't justify the reactor cost still. It could be worse mentality never worked for me because it could also be better. Half glass full, ahem. So as I have been annoyed at that I have also started looking into the triton method as well.
From what I can tell this is an easy way to maintain an aquarium and I was leaning toward it but reading reviews on BRS people are having issues replacing their chemicals? I know there are many users of both. I was hoping people who use either could chime in and help me with my decision? I did search for similar posts and found an old one that wasn’t addressing my questions.
Thanks in advance!
