2 part solution

[gonzaimaki]

Question lang po...

Can I mix 1 gallon of Calcium solution and 1 gallon of Baking Soda solution
( sorry can't remember their RP common terms ) to make a 2 gallon tap-off solution and the remaining half gallon for the magnesium...

I'm thinking of using the 2 and half blue gallon with faucet for my tap off...

Will there be any chemical reactions if I will mix these 3

Thanks

Thanks bro, good to know before I experiment...of all the 40 views you are the only one who answered, I guess wala nang nagbalak na mag-try nito or walang may alam of the outcome when mixing these...

thanks again

try ko nga bro.. hehe!
pero pansin ko, pag same turkey baster ginamit ko pang dose.. sa CaCl2 at NaHCO3, yung 2 next kuha ko sa different solution, nagwhite ng konte yung tubig na i dose ko.. baka may chemical reaction na..

[jazz0821]

ganun na nga un, mag wwhite sya tas parang aapaw sya pag medyu maliit lang un cup na gagamitin mo hehe pansin ko din pag gagawa ka 2part, when mixing calcium powder with water, umiinit un tubig, opposite naman sa alk, pag minix un sodium bicarb sa 1gal water, lumalamig un tubig

[obet_carlos]

use hot water when mixing NaHCO3 para madaling matunaw..

Please confirm lang if true na 500php ang per bag ng Calcium Hydroxide / Calcium Part
sa Alyssons...They have 40kilos per bag, sobrang dami naman nito anyone wants to group buy
kahit 2 to 3 parts lang. Alam ko mahirap din kasing itago ito for long period of time due to moisture.

[gonzaimaki]

[jazz0821]

[gonzaimaki]

calsium chloride 160php per kilo
baking soda 29php per kilo

yung lime ang per bag, AKA Kalk.....hanap pa ako sa palengke baka may nagtitinda
ng retail lang..

hello gonzai! any chance you could ship it to LP via courrier?

[sid]

Nakakabili ako dati sa Alysson's ng Kalk on a per kilo basis. Aside sa Alysson's, may mga ibang chemical stores pa na nagbebenta ng ganito sir. Try to browse the yellow pages.

Just make sure to indicate that you're buying a food grade (or pharmaceutical grade).


Cheers!

Mas malayo pa nga po ako eh, taga South ako, Calamba Laguna
Medyo busy now kaya I decided to just dose

Kent Turbo Calcium for the CALCIUM

Also used the Turbo Calcium, very concentrated via injection on my Aiptesia, desintegrated lahat

[Sea Turtle]
