High Calcium?

[timsedwards]

Hi Guys,
Just tested my calcium levels, they are high at about 480....i use the kalk drip method but only two shroom colonies and a small zoo colony so obviously dont require too much. Is a high Ca level as mine detrimental or does it just get wasted or whatever?
Thanks!
Tim.

What's your alk at? 480 is not detrimental but for soft corals it's not really nessesary to have that much calcium. Stop dosing until it comes down to where your wanting it.

my alk is low at about 8 or so, needs boosting. Yeh im not going to drip tonight and possibly tomorrow.
Thanks,
Tim.
