| no, u buy 2 seperate containers.... alkalinity and calcium. They are shippied halfway full in a concentrate form, u have to fill with ro water to the specified line on the bottle. They do that to save on weight, shipping...money. Bottles havent been sitting in sunlight or anything, just on a shelf in the basment for about a year and another year sitting in a closet. |

That always works for me. Luna |
