I saw something about using Kalk, does it have to be mixed with anything else? How do I dose...with a needle?

Kalk paste (use SW or RODI) & large syringe.

I done a bunch of tests on the tank. kH-10 phosphates-0 (of course) and Calcium-520 Calcium is a bit high, but I dont believe it's anything to worry about at the moment....it should start dropping when inverts are added, right? My major concern in the pH, it's at 8.0. Is 8.0 fine as long as it stays stable at 8.0? Or do I need to do something to raise it? Should I remove the Chemi-pure?

Personally, I don't think Chemipure is the right thing to use for reef tanks. More for discus. Yes, when you add corals, they will use the calcium but that's only corals with a skeleton.
