i overshot my calcium
last test was 650
besides waiting it out and water changes is ther any way to deplete the calcium????

would like to get it down to 450

 

[daugherty]

water changes is about the only way

i would be doing water changes everyday to get it down

I agree with the above. Do daily water change.

Im gonna disagree with em this time around.
As long as your not getting a snow storm in your tank(white flakes floating every where)I'd just wait it out and keep an eye on the alkalinity.
Coralline algae and hard corals will use the calcium pretty quick if you just let em.

Im with Yote on this one, if it isnt precipitating let it work its course

Overshot your calcium?
Never heard it put that way before. :mrgreen:

Can't imagine you can have too much calcium if your not getting snow.

im going to go with the wait it out method
continue normal water changes
it is gradually coming down
