Kalk Inflow - PH Intake

[AJ_77]

I have my kalkwasser drip tube right beside a MaxiJet Ph intake. Will the slow drip of kalk have any negative effects as it is dispersed by the powerhead (increased wear, crustiness)?

Just wondering if I need to pick a different spot for the inflow drip. I'm only dripping a gallon a night for now, at 1 TBSP kalk mix per jug.

TIA.

I feed mine right into the chamber where my return pump sits. No problems in the 2 years I've using this setup.

Great then, thanks.

Is there any concern about the powerhead sucking the kalk out at a faster rate rather than it dripping out?

No, the tubing end is beside the PH intake. It mixes with tank water then shoosh, off it goes.

Cool, just wondering. See you later!
