Type’s of Rock Limestone It can be used for remineralizing and increasing the alkalinity of purified water to prevent pipe corrosion and to restore essential nutrient levels. Dolomite Dolomite is also used as the substrate in marine(saltwater) aquariums to help buffer changes in pH of the water. Calcareous Sand Calcareous Sand counters the acid in the stream from acid rain.
