Calcium level needed for softies & zoos?

[honl1]

What kind of calcium level should I look for in a tank with soft corals and some mushrooms?

[drock59]

get some good test kits and it should be around 400.

It is probably best to keep it as close to natural sea water as possible which is about 420.

I'd keep the Ca near seawater and worry about the Alk and PH.

shoot for normal conditions...ph 8.1 to 8.4 calcium 350 to 450 alk 8dhk to 11 ..magnesium 1250 to 1350 and undetectable nitrates and phosphates although a little nitrates is good for softys such as xenia...
