I used to keep my calcium level at 500.Then I started adding a lot of SPS,and now I count myself lucky to get it to 350.

sorry to hijack, but you should also look into one of these instead of the tunze you want, much better powerheads

They also cost a little over double the price as the tunze.
Would be nice to have the motor outside the tank though.

thats true, but you do only need one and the price is for the wave maker and the powerhead

The API test always read higher Calcium that's why I got the better test. Them drops are just not consistent is size.
