Help with Calcium Level

[Drill Sergeant]

Hello all. need some help with my calcium level

I currently have a 90 gallon tank with about 70 gallons of total volume of water, and I'm trying to bring my calcium level up a bit. the last few times I've tested it, its been at 340-350ppm. I really want to get around 380-420ppm. I currently dose the tank daily with a capful of Aragamilk, but not sure if thats enough.

Checked the rest of the water, and everything was good (yep including the alk)
the only thing that was a bit low was the salinity (1.021) and of course the calcium.

need some advise

I believe if you raise your salinity, your calcium will go up. You can only have so much calcium at that low level.

I keep my salanity at 35 ppm. If you bring up your salinity your Ca levels will rise too. Try that before adding any additives. If you still need to increase it try kalkwasser for all evaporated water... it is awesome stuff!!

Should I just do a water change, or should i just add salt water for my top off, until I get it to a decent level.

I would do it over the next several water changes. Just make sure you don't raise it too fast! Do it very, very slowly. Easy does it!
