Has anyone experienced a delay from the time when you manually dose/making adjustments to parameters to when they actually register on a water test? I'm talking specially to Mg at the moment. For example, I use the calculators and determine that I need to add X amount of dry mag to make an adjustment solution.
If I test hours afterwards, the values will not budge. 24 hrs later.. So not budge. However it starts registering the increase closer to 48 hrs after dosing. No other changes in terms of auto-doser schedules. Just bulk adjustment where I was at 1350 and wanted to set a new target at 1440.
I've experienced this a couple time and can't figure it out. I mean hours should be enough for the solution to "mix" with the rest of the tank water.
Anyone else experience this or have a similar experience? Adjusting Alk is however almost immediate which is why this is interesting.
