best test kits for Ca and Mg?

I use Salifert and Elos, but IMO they all suck.

Ditto. Although I have been putting more faith in Elos kits lately.

I wouldn't be surprised if your magnesium is 1050 ppm out of the D-D bucket.

I use Salifert for both and I am happy with them.

I have used the Elos test kits as that is all J&L sells, however the last couple of test kits the fluids ran out rather prematurely and I only got about 30 tests per kit. I then switched to Salifert from OA.
