I dose these from Seachem.
http://www.seachem.com/Products/prod...eefBuffer.html Keeps PH up as well. http://www.seachem.com/Products/prod...dvCalcium.html Adds Mg as well as Ca. I keep my alk at around 8 KH, and Ca around 400. Mg is around 1300. Using IO salt for now. My tanks remain very stable, and have not had to adjust my dosing for a couple months now.

ah yes, but Lauries tank kills most coral
 .....not sure if its the parameters or her "reef" fish.....I on the other hand have a full blown mixed reef .....heavily sps dominant, some lps and a whack of zoas....... not 1 drop of Ca, Mg or DKH in two years(I have a profilux doser sitting on a shelf collecting dust).....tank has been on Prodibio for about three monthes and thats it........ how big is your tank David?.....I would think about getting in to the bulk chemicals if your tank is over say 100g.....this will save you a tonne of money over buying pre-mixed solutions....
