My Calcium is to high...what should I do?

[lizzy]

I just got a calcium test today and Someone just gave me some Mushrooms to put in (for free..and I havent put them in yet...) but i Just tested for calcium and its at 540! I dont know what to do...is it okay to go ahead and put the mushrooms in? other params are good just calcium...

The calcium will go down with time, but if you really feel like lowering it fast, I would suggest doing a water change. IMO let it ride.

I just barely did a water change today 10% I wonder if my salt has to much calcium in it along with my live aragonite sand....??? i dont know why its so high...i've never added any calcium or anything. someone told me today a website that will help me out with cal/alk...getting those params in check..so hopefully i'll be able to figure it out. Thanks for your help!

Salt mixes can sometimes contain too much or too little salt. Mix up a batch and test it to see if that's a problem. Also, what are your alkalinity, PH and magnesium readings?
