Calcium WITH D3 question

[Mr Wilson]

Hey everyone, I have a question about Calcium WITH D3. We have the D3 with phosphorus from Flukers and have been using that since our first cham, Shooter, so since last April with no problems. But recently I saw a response on another thread that said to get the Calcium with D3 without phosphorus. What is the reasoning behind this? I just want to make sure it's not harmful. Thanks!

You want a phosphorous free calcium because the insects we typically use have more phosphorous than calcium. You also do not want to use D3 all the time.

Oh we NEVER use D3 all the time, that is once every other week. I was just wondering what the difference was and whether I should switch it out or not. But I think I will!! Thanks so much for getting back to me, I appreciate it!
