Balling Sodium Hydrogen 1Kg Preis

The Balling method involves raising the calcium level and carbonate hardness (KH) of seawater by using two basic elements: calcium chloride (CaCl2) and sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3).

Calcium and bicarbonate ions combine, leading to an increase in calcium levels and carbonate hardness.
To counterbalance the ionic imbalance, a third element must be added: mineral salt devoid of sodium chloride, composed only of trace elements.
The three salts: dehydrated calcium chloride, sodium bicarbonate, and mineral salt are dissolved in 2 liters of osmosis water in three different containers.

Here are the quantities of each element calculated for 2 liters of osmosis water:

- 144 g of dehydrated calcium chloride
- 163.8 g of sodium bicarbonate
- 48.75 g of mineral salt

For a 100 L aquarium, the initial dose is 50 ml per day for each solution. The dosage can be done using a syringe or with very efficient dosing pumps. It is important to pour the solutions into different areas of the aquarium or the sump where there is good water circulation.

At the beginning, measure the calcium concentration and carbonate hardness every day. These values should only increase very slowly.
If the values rise too quickly, reduce the dosage; otherwise, increase the dosage but not more than 10% of the initial dosage.
