mandown123 hears surf in the shell
as thincat says, the 600 calcium isnt harmful to your livestock, but it WILL upset the ionic balance of the water. Explianing it further than that would require more chemistry than I remember from High school, but the result is your calcium and alkalinity levels affect each other and can cause alk spikes. Get those levels under control
