Eh....its ok, a Tetra Product I think...not as good as some others..I'd use it... just next time look for other phosphorus FREE calcium supplements....like RepCal w/o Vitamin D, MinerAll O (w/o D), Tums or generic equivalent (pure calcium carbonate/phosphate binders/no Vitamin D), Citrical w/o D, Calcium lactate w/o D..bunch of em....just gotta read labels...you want to look for a Calcium/Phosphorus ratio of 2:1 at least (2xs a much calcium as phosphorus), No added Vitamin D (unknown if reptiles able to utilize oral Vitamin D supplements and can lead to toxicity same with the Vitamin A content of multi-vitamins if too high can cause probs.
