I’d like 2 cal hypo tabs to put in the skimmer while we go on vacation for a week, but I only see giant tubs for sale and I wouldn’t use them regularly bc I don’t want to continuously add calcium.
Does anyone know where you can buy a very small amount of CAL hypo tabs? My CYA is already about 55 so I’m not going to use Dichlor/Trichlor.
 
It is not typical to find cal hypo in tablet form and even less so for individual sale. It’s just not economical. As well, cal hypo typically can’t be formed into a tablet without using binders to hold the granular powder together. Cal hypo tablets are also typically designed to be used in special grinding feeders.

Are you sure the buckets you located aren’t trichlor tablets? That is far more common.
