How much eggshell should I add to my tank?

My tap water has 5.6mg calcium per liter. I'm getting around 200 malaysian trumpet snails and want to add crushed eggshell to increase the amount of calcium in the water. How much eggshell should I add to a 55g tank, and how often should I add new eggshell?

Hello Blob a half cup in your filter placed in a bag where the water flow can disperse the calcium into your tank should do.I don`t know how long it well take for eggshell to make a difference in the calcium level.You just have to wieght then test,then add more eggshell if needed.
