need help

I got a new tank for X-mas its a 95 gallon wave tank. I went form a 40g to my new tank. I never had a problem with the 40g but since I changed to my new tank. I have been having a problem with calcium it keeps going low. along with my kh level. The only thing im doing different is im not using distilled water. I dont have as much light on this tank yet. I plan on getting two metal halide. The dual 250 watt light. so I will have 500 watts could the light make a difference oris it the water please help me!!!!!!!!!!!!! thanks for any help
