need help boasting calcium

[nstd]

I'm currently using ESV B-Ionic 2 Parts in my 17g.

I dose 5 ml of Part 1 (alk) once a day. Then I dose Part 2 (Cal) twice a day. Once in the morning and another at night.

PH 8.3-8.4
Mag 1400
Alk is 9
Calcium 350

Can I up my Part 2 another 5 ml to increase my Calcium?

Yes just don't bump it up more than 50ppm/day.

I know your looking for Randy's response, but I'd suggest keeping both parts equal and using the alk to determine dosage. Many of these multiple part products are made to work with eachother and balance eachother out. I would adjust ca using straight calcium chloride, then keep it all in line using equal parts of the 2 part.

Id look to boost the calcium one time with something cheaper than B-ionic (just use calcium chloride), but using B-ionic is fine. Yes it is Ok to add as much as is needed.
