CO2 Scrubber Question

Jyetman · 09/27/2014, 09:30 PM

I built a DIY CO2 Scrubber attached to my skimmer. It is using an air pump to circulate KALK in a bottle. My question is that I've heard the liquid Kalk can end up in the tank and overdose is this correct?

This can't be a dumb question I'm using Brightwell KALK+2 which contains Magnesium and strontium is it possible that evaporation can carry these minerals through the venturi and overdose my tank? ?
