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

It is filtered water that gives you water that has 0 TDS(Total Dissolved Solids).Which means No bad chemicals goes into your tank.
