Hehe. Hey Eric, I use a kalkreactor. It's a very simple device. Basically, you have a chamber that holds freshwater and kalkwasser. Every hour or so, the water is stirred to mix the solution (either powerhead or magnetic stirrer). A dosing pump pumps freshwater into the unit on a regular interval. The dosing pump forces water into the kalkreactor chamber, thus pushing water from the within the kalkreactor out into the tank (or sometimes sump). You get a constant supply of dissolved kalkwasser this way; Instead of mixing new batches to drip every day, you can add a big lump into the reactor and refill once a week (or longer).

Hope that helps.
