I dose kalkwasser rn but it dosent keep up with my calc which is at 360 right now so I was wondering what you guys think would be a cheap calcium supplement for a 125g.
 
Kalkwasser will be pushing up alk by 2.8 dKH for each 20 ppm of calcium, and that is why it cannot ever be used to raise calcium that much at once.

Calcium chloride is the best material for a calcium boost. Most any brand is fine, but looking for a purity assurance can be worthwhile.

Yea that makes sense any recommendations on a specific brand?
