Red Sea Calcium

[G’sReef]

Do any of you Red Sea Foundation users notice the Calcium having a brown-ish look to it?? Could this be an issue for the tank?

I have not (the Red Sea calcium is crystal clear), but my old bottle of Seachem calcium did have a brown-ish tint to it.

It's likely just some sort of contaminent. I've seen this in their calcium powder when mixed. As to if it is harmful I have no clue as I don't know the exact contaminant but it likely isn't something to be seriously concerned with unless you did no water changes.

I’ve been fighting low nutrients issues so I haven’t been doing water changes to get them to increase.

These things would probably take a long time to build up and may not even be harmful (such as iron).

The brown tint is normal. I’ve been using it for several years now with no problems.
