I used it at first to bring up my calcium, it works. Eventually, you'll need the 2-part buffer as bringing up your calcium will affect Ph & alkalinity.

It is a fine calcium source. But I agree that other methods will have additional benefits.
I discuss such issues here: How to Select a Calcium and Alkalinity Supplementation Scheme http://www.advancedaquarist.com/issues/feb2003/chem.htm The “How To” Guide to Reef Aquarium Chemistry for Beginners, Part 2: What Chemicals Must be Supplemented http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2007-04/rhf/index.php

Randy-thanks for those articles. Without reading those first, I would have simply put a liquid additive, without a second part. Good to know
