I have not been dosing Calcium. I am switching back to Reefers Best, and will watch more closely.

salinity is made with high calcium the idea is to dose less , if your tank doesnt need a high grade salt then i would switch to something different , the salt you use and what or if you dose is based on your corals and livestocks needs.

salinity is a great salt but has high parameters and isnt always consistent , reefers best is def a better salt(imo) but not always accessible.

I like RB salt. But like Denny said availability is hit and miss. I use salinity and have had issues with high values. But. To break up high swings I cut my water changes in half and increased frequency. It's depending on your system as to what's used. I do a WC every three days and still have to dose in between.
