Calcium reactor vs. Kalkwasser reactor... just reading or not  – 03/03/09
Hi,
<Hello there>
I was wondering what the difference between a calcium reactor and a Kalkwasser reactor is?
<?... One provides both biomineral and alkalinity by melting down their sources... with an acid generally. The Kalk one delivers a source of CaOH... by dissolution in water...>
What the advantages and disadvantages between each one?
<? Posted...>
Which is better?
<? Both have their merits... and proponents, detractors... depending on what sort of livestock you keep, what you want to do with them... providing more of what these tools can do may be of use to you... or more trouble, expense than they're worth...>
Your help is been great in the past! Looking forward to your reply.
Garrett
