I know that 420-450 calc is ideal level for sps dominated tank, but what about an lps dominated tank? Would I still need to maintain 420-450 or would a somewhat lower level be acceptable?

Thanks!
 
I have mostly LPS and softies (Lords, Micros, Palys, Blastos, Ricordea) and I keep my calcium in the 385-415 range. All are doing well.
 
I keep acans, micros, rics, chalices, and I like to keep my cal 430 440. Along with mag around 1400. I have trouble keep my mag up so I've been dosing lately.
 
I keep chalices, micros, acans & very few sps in my one tank & try to keep my alk above 1400 w/my ca aound 450. So far so good
