Mine took a while to completely dissolve. continue to shake it and it will eventually all dissolve but if there is a sligth deposite at the bottom is no problem.

What 2 parts did you use? I use the bulk reef supply kit and evenrything dissolved after a few hours, and for sure it was all dissolved after one day.

I don't think it will have an effect on your dosing either. use their calculator and go slowly with dosing. I do mine each day manualy. Also when I dose for KH I drop it in the skimmer in the air bubble because otherwise it is making the water cloudy when it hit the water.

So do I dose with precipitate left settled on the bottom? Its not a lot of undissolved , but doesnt that change my KH concentration in solution for dosing.
Any help is appreciated.
