To be honest I haven't check my magnesium. I'm I'm fairly new to mangroves myself. No, there isn't a mangrove that doesn't "consume" mag. They use mag to displace sodium from their bodies. If the mag gets low they loose this ability and succumb to sodium poisoning. The apparent consumption is them taking mag is for this reason and it is lost inthe sacrifial leaves.
