Bit of fun with a prize
Ok lets take the heat out of the balling debate, lets add a bit of fun
win a pack of TM balling ABC by the first person to answer this very simple question
1. TRUE OR FALSE
By doing a 10% water change you remove any imbalance in sodium chloride 2 part dosing produces?
2. Explain your answer?
First person with the right answers wins

But the question says ANY imbalance. There is a possibility it does solve some imbalances but not all. |

1) false (if the question means any and all)
2) if I understand correctly, 2 part adds salt without the rest of the "stuff" in the salt bucket. Adding only 2 part will reduce the ratio of the "stuff" in your tank, creating an imbalance. Doing a 10% water change will only improve the imbalance 10%.

Yeah we have a winner!
PM me your address
2 part and 3 part add sodium chloride to the system (just as balling does) however when you do a water change you only remove that % of the imbalance created. |

But if you just started 2 part and the imbalance in substance A went out a very tiny amount. Doing a 10% water change could add just enough to get substance A back into balance.

But you are guessing. the clue is in the question asked "could"
Your question is a good one though

So there you go. The answer is a definite maybe. While no and yes are obviously wrong. |
