Alkalinity and Calcium levels

I just did a test on alkalinity and got a reading of 6.5. Is that too high? How do I get it down if it is. The calcium level showed 325. I added some calcium to raise it up. My tank is only live rock with some inverts and a few fish. I want to get to a reef tank quality soon. Any suggestions or ideas?

And oh by the way - This morning after adding the calcium my tank is very cloudy. Is this normal? :nervous: :notsure: :confused: :eek:

You'll probably get more answers to these types of questions in the reef forum.
Your Calcioum is a little low. I need to know the measurement unit before I can answer on your ALK. If it's Meq/L then it's really high. If it's dKH then it's a bit low. If it's ppm then it's REALLY low.
