![]() It will depend if you are keeping corals or not. if NOT, then I wouldn't worry about it. But if you are keeping corals, especially SPS, then you should maintain your MG levels at around 1350... So you are a little low then.
I use the following link to calculate my dosages to get things back on track. http://reef.diesyst.com/chemcalc/chem_calc3.html

![]() suggest RHF 2 part recipe as a guide for a start. For every gallon of Ca and Alk, 2.5 cups Mg.
Also look into Balling method (my understanding the 3rd part basically Mg and trace elements)
