Posted	calcium ?
18-03-2007 23:14 by tomdoc	hi there i no there are calcium products on the market .. but can you not just add chalk ? also which is the quickest way to get more coral line algea .. i no you need calcium
18-03-2007 23:24 by tomdoc	also what should the calcium level be in a marine tank ?
19-03-2007 07:05 by trik	Optimum levels should be 350/400ppm
19-03-2007 10:07 by Alan	Max the calcium and the alk go for an alkalinity of 4-5 meq/l and a calcium of 450-500ppm Also get rid off all phosphate as this inhibits the growth of coralline algae and you need lots of light too.
19-03-2007 19:26 by diane	you can get kent calcium, di
20-03-2007 12:30 by Alan	Personally I use seachem as it is easy to use and does what it says on the tin in terms of how much a teaspoon will raise alk or calc. Have used Kent but to be honest I wasn't that impressed. However the best way to do it is to use a 2 part additive that will enable calc and alk to be increased together maintaining the appropriate calc alk balance.
