Hey all, I was looking into getting a kalk reactor for the benefits of higher pH and phosphate control. I was confused when seeing how they set up kalk reactors with ATO pumps as well as dosing pumps.
If your ato pump is in the freshwater reservoir and it pushes kalk solution through the reactor, would you have your dosing pump also connected to the freshwater reservoir, but pump freshwater directly to the sump to keep salinity stable?
Or should you connect your ATO pump only to your sump to keep salinity stable, and then a dosing pump should go from your freshwater reservoir to the reactor to push consistent amounts of kalk through?
Does this make sense? Lol
