What supplements do you use? - Page 2 - Aquarium Advice

I use Seachem CA and Oceanic salt. I found that adding four tsps. will bring the CA up to about 480 in the mixed SW.

I am of the opinion that you should try PWC `s first and see if that works. I dont add any supplements to the tank and mine does OK. Granted I dont have alot of SPS corals (just three) but my calcium stays around 450 with just weekly PWC`s.

I guess thats the downfall of reef crystals that the calcium comes out at a low 360
