Mississippi Lime VitaCal-H Calcium Hydroxide provides reliable kalkwasser performance for reef aquariums and is the manufacturer’s recommended choice for K1 and K2 Kalk Stirrers.
Selected after more than a year of bench testing, VitaCal-H has been used by the stirrer manufacturer since 2008. Its mixing characteristics helped shape the design of the K1 and K2, delivering clear, saturated kalkwasser while maintaining a loose, non-clumping slurry at the bottom of the stirrer.
Kalkwasser dosing helps replenish calcium and alkalinity consumed by corals and other calcifying organisms while supporting aquarium pH. VitaCal-H mixes easily and provides consistent saturation, making it well suited to routine dosing through a compatible kalk stirrer.

Why Compatibility Matters
Calcium hydroxide products can differ in density and mixing behaviour. Some alternatives may clump or harden inside a stirrer, placing excessive strain on the motor. VitaCal-H offers the mixing performance the K1 and K2 were designed around.
