Later on i'll test again and then maybe Monday add again to slowly raise them.

Correct? Or is my thinking wrong?
thats fine, im not familiar with seachem products but your on the right track just be sure to monitor your alk as welll.when dosing calcium(liquid calcium additive right??) make sure to test for alk as one effects the other.and dont dose too much in one dose do it gradually over a few days


do you have corals in your tank?
