A quick search on RC revealed a thread from 2007 where someone asked the same question. One of the moderators answered by saying that the magnesium would likely precipitate out of solution if mixed in freshwater along with calcium hydroxide.

it's not that I am going through lots of magnesium presently, but I am planning on reducing the amount of water changes.....
thanks for the info from RC, when I pick up some more magnesium chloride I can mix the solutions and see how much precipitate forms before dumping any in the ato.
