This will lower my KH and allow for more dissolution of Ca.
I think.

Ok, first you need to test your Mg, but you also need to test your ALK and not give us a KH as most probably don't even know what that one is.. I use KH for my fresh water tanks but I don't bother for my salt.
if you can get Alk, Ph, Sg, we could make a pretty good guess of the issue but the only real way to know would be to add Mg in there also.
