Is it necessary to dose carbo calcium with all for reef? I'm currently dosing 30ml's per day in a 60 gallon tank but it is steadily going up.

I have been using the powdered version, not sure if that is easier to get or not. I have my alk at 10dkh, my calcium runs 390-410. I wish it was higher but everything is happy and appears to be growingAlk is a little low at 7 and calcium is 400. I started to increase the dose up to 4ml's over the last few weeks but still holding fast at 7. Tank is SPS dominated and growing well so I'm not overly concerned. All for reef is in short supply in Africa so I might add the carbo calcium to make whats left of the tub to go further.
The liquid AFR is readily available but ridiculously expensiveI have been using the powdered version, not sure if that is easier to get or not. I have my alk at 10dkh, my calcium runs 390-410. I wish it was higher but everything is happy and appears to be growing
That is why I have the powder also. I am not dosing as much as you are though so in a pinch I have used the liquid 500ml jug while waiting for restocks on the powder.The liquid AFR is readily available but ridiculously expensive
