i been pumpin cal + and kh + into the tank for about a week and a half now calcium is 460ppm now and kh is 110ppm. calcium ok level but i got a bit to go with the kh, would that be correct?

Also for some reason I cant find my anemone anywhere in the tank is this a common occurence?
 
Your KH is a little low..the area you need to be shooting for on the dHK is 8 - 12, so middle of them in KH is 200ppm....to convert KH to dKH you devide your KH (ppm) by 18.9 and this will give you the figure in dKH..Are you measuring your alk on this system?

If your not already, i would keep an eye on the tanks pH aswell, as this too can be effected.

There is a fine balance between calcium and carbonate hardness so only slight changes should be made to bring the parameters into the correct areas.
