Concentrated powdered Calcium helps maintain and increase your tanks Ca level without increasing any other elements concentration. Calcium is an essential part of calcification and coral growth. Corals skeletons are dependent on having ample calcium and alkalinity in the water for corals to absorb and convert into a calcium carbonate structure. Dry Calcium additives are very cost effective and when mixed into a solution can be just as good or better than liquid additives. Aquaforest Calcium Dry can be mixed with Magnesium Dry to create a solution that when dosed will maintain proper calcium and magnesium levels with a single dosing pump.
Calcium Dry can be used with:
- SPS corals
- LPS Corals
- Soft Corals
- Clams
Instructions:
- To make a solution add 50g of Dry Calcium and 10g of Dry Magnesium to 1000 mL of RODI water. Stir vigorously and then let it sit for 24 hours before use.
- It is suggested to start with a dose of 5mL per 27 gallons of aquarium water daily. After each dose, test your aquarium's Calcium level and adjust dosage as necessary for your systems requirements.
- It is highly recommended to add calcium solution slowly to a high flow area of the tank to help reduce any precipitation.
Contains: Calcium, Chloride

How We Photograph Our Corals
- Every WYSIWYG photo is taken in our systems with consistent lighting and a custom white balance.
- Our goal is simple: show the coral as it looks in a properly lit reef — not overly edited or exaggerated.
Our Camera + Lens
- Camera: Sony a7 IV R (mirrorless)
- Lens: Sony FE 90mm f/2.8 Macro G OSS
- Macro glass lets us capture fine details like texture, polyp extension, and subtle color shifts without getting too close.
Lighting We Shoot Under
- Primary: EcoTech Radion XR30 Blue
- Supplement: ReefBrite XHO
- Our Radion “photo” mix:
100% Violet
100% UV
100% Deep Blue
65% Blue
Color Accuracy
- We use a custom white balance so the photo matches what you’ll see under a clean, blue-leaning reef spectrum.
- Corals can look different tank-to-tank based on nutrients, spectrum, and flow — but we aim for honest, repeatable photos you can trust.
