I just ordered a gallon a Bulk Reef Supply for my 2 gallon reef tank because I needed to increase my low calcium levels. The calcium chloride calculator said to add 7.7 tsp of solution to a gallon of water. But how do I dose the tank? Do I add the entire gallon to the tank or only out a little of the gallon bucket each day?

In a tank your size, doing a bit of math to get to aore reasonable sized water change would be the direction I'd go.
As an example, divide the 7.7 by 4 and do a 1/4 gallon water change with the additive mixed in.
