I currently have a 8.5 Alk, 405 Ca, and damned if I can't get my Mg above 1300. Even when my Alk was at 7.5, Ca at 420 the Mg was no higher than 1200ish.

I am dosing 170ml Part A, 150ml Part B, two doses of 150ml Part C.

Your Mg is perfect for the other ratios why do you want to bring it up further? its exactly where it should be 1280 to 1350 is the magic area.

you can but its an expensive way of doing it, I would suggest using TM bio mag which is specifically designed for such things, once at the correct level you can then change over to part C

I've also had to bring up mag manually.

I'm still using reefers best which mag needs to be brought up

Yeah might be a reefers best thing but I figured a Half liter a day would maintain it. I may have to change salts sooner than later and pick up bio mag
