Magnesium - Playing Catch Up
The funny bits about my tank is that I always playing catch up with Magnesium.
On Sunday, I brought it to my target Magnesium @ 1,320 ppm and by today (Tuesday), it is down to 1,260 ppm.
For a 2 footer CADE cube with 1x huge frogspawns, 2x small hammers, 1x small torch, few mushies, rics, zoos, leather ... the daily consumption of Magnesium is 30 ppm (Salifert test - long expiry).
The amount of increase acceptable for Magnesium as per Red Sea recommendation is 10 ppm.
Which means, on daily basis, I would need to dose 3 x 10 ppm.
Don't you think something is wrong here?
