Make your own kalk, using pickling lime. Save yourself a lot of money and works just as good.
read about it here. http://www.reefkeeping.com/issues/2005-01/rhf/index.php I order mine from mrswages.com |

if i were to buy a 2 part, i would go back with B-ionic for sure! B-ionic is more concentrated than kents. so you dose less for the same results. however i make my own 2 part with Randy's recipe.

If you're asking about two-parts, I think C-Balance from Two Little Fishes is the best.

I use Kent mostly because it's locally convenient and a local reefer/lfs owner who has really good success uses it.
 Also I've had pretty good luck with Kent products. I have a 52 gallon, which is verging on small for a reactor and easier just to add stuff, and the bottles are a convenient apartment size---all of which says---"course of least resistence."
