What I got from research when I was setting up my dosing is (a) slower is better for any moves (b) recommended magnesium levels no more than 100ppm per day, (c) get your magnesium up where you want it before adjusting calcium (if necessary) as magnesium levels will impact amount of calcium dosing needed.

Cheers!

Then I switch to the Balling Method of dosing. once I had me parameter in line I test every two weeks to see if I need to adjust the dose.
