Not sure how you could have little balls of kalk floating if you weren't using kalk ;) It sounds like you buffered your ALK high enough to cause a precipitatio event.
 
sorry i did not have balls back then, only that milky white cloud. water change again unless you have an other idea. thanks walt 8)
