try sinking some cuttle fish bone which also comes at any general merchant shop with name of samudra phena...it will float so you'll need to sink it in with something and will dissolve completely very slowly.

even better...go to a chemist shop and buy some nice calcium suppliment for human use and dose a few tablets each week to keep the waters calcium rich...some good brands are osteosolve and shelcal.
