You can add more reef builder. The directions on the bottle is the recomended starting dosage and you can build off that. You won't need to lower you Calcium because rasing your Alkalinity should drag it down a little. If you're worried about using more just test frequently making sure you aren't rasing it too fast... just keep doing that untill you're happy with your desired Alk.

I belive Beverly knows a link to a good reef chemistry calculator. You can punch in your current and desired alkalinity levels and then your total gallons and it will tell you how much of which product it will take to get you there. Maybe she will chime in! Try "reef chemistry calculator" in google and I think it will come up tho.
