Salifert claims this is a one-part calcium/buffer system. Anyone
using this stuff? Their product description claims:
. This Supplement is highly concentrated and contains for example
approx. 55,000 ppm calcium, corresponding amounts of biologically-
activated bicarbonate and approx. 1000 ppm strontium. The calcium is
acetate based and is converted within minutes to calcium bicarbonate.
This is unlike gluconate-based products.

So are they saying that B Ionic and the like are gluconate-based? It
sounds a little fishy to me, but dang, it would be nice to have a one-
part system for the non-chemists/lazy aquarists out there.

Thanks

B-Ionic is definitely NOT gloconate based. It's ionic calcium.
