You gotta keep us in the loop Greg as to how that works. I'm upping my Mg dosing as well to see if I can get rid of this Dictyota algae in my tank. But with the BRS Mg they have a calculator right on their website to figure it all out. Hopefully we shall both prevail!

I'll definately keep you up to date with how well it goes with the Kent stuff
Dictyota is not affected by Mg, as far as I can read from the Web ...

Greg,
I didn't mean to hijack your thread. It is still on the topic of raising Mg level however with Epsom salts instead of Kent or SeaChem products. I am sure I am not the only one curious about it.
I can create another thread if you like. Cheers!
