FAQ: Can I use Seachem Reef Calcium™ on things that are not a reef aquarium?

Reef Calcium™ hasn't been FDA approved for use in the production of food for humans or terrestrial animals, and we haven't tested it in applications outside of the aquarium environment. We will not be able to speculate on how Reef Calcium™ will work in non-aquarium applications for this very reason.

With regards to using reef products on freshwater aquariums, there is nothing about the formulation of Reef Calcium™ that makes it inherently unsuitable for freshwater environments (the form of calcium in this supplement is nontoxic to freshwater creatures.) However, polygluconate calcium (the form present in Reef Calcium™) is primarily beneficial to corals and other invertebrates which use calcium to build skeleton, while plants and freshwater fish derive the greatest benefit from stable ionic calcium supplements like Equilibrium™ or aquavitro mineralize™.
