seachem calcium killer?

I have tried to dose this seachem reef calcium two times now. The first time I used it according to the label(my mistake) resulting in killing my entire fish population. I had to change out 45% of my water to get it back to normal. Now I have tried giving it another shot at 25% recomended levels resulting in cloudy water and my flower pots hiding under substrate. Both times my water parameters were excelent with zeros in nitrate,amonia,nitrite a p.h. of 8.2 calcium at 330ppm alk. 19.6dkh
After 6 hours nitrate at 80, amonia at 50,p.h. 7.4 and worst of all calcium dropped to 250ppm. Now that I try it again bleak results
nitrate up to 40, and calcium down 50 ppm in just 10 hrs. What is it with this crap did I get a bad bottle or is it just garbage
