Nope. Im not sure why its so high either , I've always encountered high calcium levels in my tanks, last time my 30gallon tank had a similar calcium level , but the corals were doing fine. So maybe its a bad batch of test kits? But that being said , i use both api and salifert to test the water and they both showed high calcium readings .

From ahbeng @30 dollar but theres very little people using it ( not sure why )

Lanthanum chloride can be a double edge sword, imo it is safer for use on big tank.
