Anyhow.

Mg among 3 reef tanks was all in the 900-1000 range when I started testing Mg again. So I don't know what I'll find when I go to test my makeup water, but I'm not expecting to find it's very high.

I'll post back #'s if I do get around to testing a new batch of SW makeup water.. Now I'm catching up on all the Mg tests I didn't do because I'm testing every day whilst I try to raise Mg back to seawater levels .. ugh! Lesson learned, don't slip on testing if it's a parameter that's important to you.
Perhaps we need to use D-D Ocean Pro if we can trust their chem chart.?
