There may be trace amounts of calcium in it I don't know but you should test and monitor as it definately will not make a noticably difference if you have any calcium uptaking critters.

it does release some but not much, it also does some alk buffering but not much. it does do lots of oddball trace releases. are you planning on using it in a more traditional fuge or setting it up as a "eco system"? also you are talking about "miricle mud" brand stuff right and not the knock off stuff. i ask because it is pretty damn expensive for what you get. most people i know who do use it feel it's worth it but it's hard to convince people who havent tried it before.

also you dont need a calcium reactor, it's nice to have but you can drip kalk and use a 2 part additive if you don't have the cash.
