I have 35 gallon tank and have some zoas and an anemone. I am planning to have a zoa garden in the bottom and LPS corals in the stones. I will be adding more corals in a month.

My water parameters are pH: 7.8, Calcium: 360ppm and Alkalinity: 7.3 dKH.

From the internet and threads looks like my calcium and alk are low. What kind of dosing should I plan?., some say "Tropic marin-all for reef" is enough for all the elements?
Or should I dose first with kalkwasser to improve my parameters and go for all for reef?
 
I personally use all for reef just because it simplifies the “two part dosing”. You could start with doing all for reef and adjust accordingly.
