Calcium reactor effluent numbers?

I'm curious what are normal numbers for calcium reactor effluent? I have a Korallin 3002 on a system with about 350 total gallons with all soft corals and clams. I have a tough time getting my calcium above 400 and keep my magnesium up. When I measured my effluent the other day I came up with calcium 740, magnesium 1320 and alkalinity 48. These were all done with a Hach test kit. Could these numbers be correct and if so could it still not be enough to keep my systems needs in check?
