Anyone using ZeoMag in their Ca reactor?

Ok I have to ask, what do you guys have in your systems that goes through so much Mg?

I add about 1 1/2 cups of Mg, that I ordered from littlesilvermax, every 3 months or so (whenever Mg drops below 1250) and thats it.

I never had a problem with Mg until I started using IO salt. After a few months of using it my mg dropped (as well I was having problems with my reactor at that time) so I figured if I was sticking with IO (previously used Kent but then had a problem and switched) I had better supplement my Mg.

i've been running zeomag for the past few months and just recently dumped the rest of the bucket in my reactor because my mg read 1130 the other day. hopefully adding more will bring it up. i'm hoping this is why some of my pieces are suffering because i cant find anything else wrong

I use IO as well...have done for the last 15 years.

I had to go and check my tank after reading this thread because I realized the last time I checked Mg levels was before the fathers day BBQ and then it was at 1280. Now it is at 1230, time to add more Mg but that is only a 50ppm drop in 3 months. I wonder why I don't use up much

Thanks all.

Maybe I'm getting worked up with Mg as just started monitoring but when I first checked was 1000ppm (IO salt). Brought up by adding a whole lot of magnesium chloride and afraid if needing the large doses would be the norm, thought Mg via the reactor might be better.

If marie's example of what I can expect, then maybe not so bad sticking with littlesilvermax's product after all I did get 20 lbs from him. Guess I'll monitor for a bit longer before buying ZeoMag.

Where can one find some zeomag locally, or is it not around here?

Believe Golds was getting into Zeovit, might try them for the Mg

[kaboom]

anywhere else?
