Keeping in check pulling out with forceps but I'm looking a fix as well.

I'll add minimal feeding, Regal and Purple Tangs, Rabbit fish and Lawnmower Blenny don't touch it. Haven't tried the 1600ppm Mg.

I had some on one rock, and no way I could get rid of it. I ended up bleaching the rock. Hate that stuff!!

I had my mag that high by accident one time, although you would not have known it at the time by looking at any of the corals, they all looked fine.

I did the mag trick and it worked well, and the corals didn't seem to notice.
