| Re: Magnesium issues I mostly use Salifert tests. Nitrate test is LaMotte (reliable and easier to read at low range.)
I'm pretty confident in the mag test. Before the upgrade, my mag was staying between 1350 and 1450.
Reef Crystals for upgrade salt (2 weeks ago.)
That's an interesting thought that the corals could be using it as fast as I'm adding it.
I'll have to get some more mag supplements.
Do y'all have favorite supplements for mag?
