Michael,

After the BIG water change and carbon, adjust alk and Ca levels. Also test for Mg and adjust.

Do you think it might have been kalk precipitation?

Mike, you can add a bit of vinegar to your tank to get the kalk back into solution. I just don't know how much. I've done it before try doing a search on RC or Reefs.org.
