I've read through the threads and know this is a common issue but I can't find an answer to my question. I've done multiple tests on my Mg levels and have been dosing and monitoring it for a little over a week; I've verified my results with my LFS and am using a Salifert test. I've been dosing slowly but I want to speed this up just a bit. My level on 4/17 was 990 ppm and I've dosed a total of 300mL and did a 5% water change since then. The water change seemed to have a negative impact on my Mg levels and today I'm at 975 ppm. I picked up some Red Sea Mg powder at the LFS and have mixed up another 250 mL. I've read that I can raise my ppm up to 100 ppm in a day but that will require just over 290 mL of the mixture. I'm a little concerned to put that much at once in my tank. My goal is to get to 1350 ppm and I have a few coral in the tank now.
