Kent salt may be slightly low in Mg, but it is more likely your corals have been using it, along with Ca, to grow, giving you such low Mg levels.

I have never used epsom salts to raise...

Don't know if the old rock and sandbed will cause algae problems, but overfeeding sure will. Slow down on the feeding and save yourself major algae headaches down the road.

George,

Did it split after we talked? Did you test alk, Ca, Mg, pH, salinity, etc?

I've also read about people trying to get their BTAs to split by extra feeding and the BTAs just got bigger :confused:

If anything, I've been feeding less often than I was, say, a month ago.

Mark,

I would rearrange the tank so the THREEE GBTAs were not crowding each other the way they are right now. Plus, I think the clowns would like at least on GBTA to be lower in the tank.
