API liquid calcium calculator?

I need to raise my ca from 360 to 400 on my 120g. I have API liquid calcium but the Reef chem calculator doesn't list this brand of calcium. The API Bottle says it's 3.25-4.25%. Directions say 5ml per 10g. Is kent marine dosage equivalent to API?

I'd try the Kent Marine dosage, but target 20 ppm or so of change, and see what actually happens. It's difficult to find the concentrations of all of the products.
