Well you have already mentioned thebest advice really, however if there is an abundant supply of calcium there really should be no reason to remove him. What calcium sources are you using ??
If you use limestone place it at strategic points around the tank so he is always presented with it, you could also try this will lite bits of cuttlefish.
All the best
