Honestly, save your money. Maintain a stable level of alkalinity and calcium and the coraline will take care of itself. I have never dosed it and I have ample, in fact it is a problem! Any anyway, if you can see the liverock that just means you have room for more corals

I went and bought some Tropic Marin Bio-Calcium. I think it's made by the same company who makes Zeo products? It costs a bit more per gallon in the long run but if it helps my tank so be it.
If anyone uses this can you share what you think of it?

Use this product to raise your calcium to 425+/-. As it appears you do not have a calcium reactor, use a daily 2-part additive (such as B-Ionic or a comarable product) to maintain your calcium and alkalinity. Your coraline algae with come with time. Cheers.
