How to lower calcium?

[Azul17]

Is there a way to lower my calcium?

Alk- 8.7dkH
Mag - 1800ppm
Cal - 590

I’ve been testing for a two weeks and my calcium and magnesium don’t go down. My alkalinity went from 10 to 8.7dkH. Should I raise my alkalinity to 10?

Is there a way to lower both calcium and magnesium?

My water changes are every two weeks 10% I use IO reef crystals.

Change salt is the easiest way if you are not dosing.

I put rodi water in container with mixing pump then I add the salt and let it sit over night and do water change the next day.

I use 2 little fishies. Last salt I used was tropic Marin pro. The 1 thing I can do to benefit my tank is put a premium salt in so that's what I do. So many things are out of my control that I feel I should put the best in when I have the control.
