Then again, if you're unsure of the ideal calcium levels for a reef tank, I think you've got a bit of reading to do before adding anything!

I did know what ideal cal. levels are but i didnt know why my test was that high. i said...

i thought it was supposed to be 450 ppm or something??

I'd give constructive criticism if there was anything to critisize

looks great so far! I'm a big fan of your aquascaping! Can't wait to see it with life on it.

Thanks! i will try to get a bit better picture of the rock work later but for now im focused on getting coral in there!!!
again, thanks for the compliment

That level seems REALLY high, I would try with a different test kit if you can, or bring it to a LFS to test for you.

you really need to know ALK and MG as all of these form a balance... I would definately correct all these values before adding anything to the tank... see bev's chemistry links for more details
