Kalk reactors stir every few minutes and then dose anytime the float valve or ato demand water. If it's just stirred the whole reactor and immediately (or during stirring) tops off, what's the difference?
I'm not saying not to fully mix it, but some won't dose kalkwasser until it's been mixed and set for like 12+ hours.
Yes, VERY caustic
Karin, are you using a ph probe or test kit? If probe, when is the last time you've cleaned it in vinegar and re-calibrated?

Killed my first coral in 1991, have tried to do better since. Always tricky.
