I have a notion to brew up some magnesium acetate (precipitate Mg(OH)2 from epsom salt and NaOH, rinse, dissolve in vinegar) to use in my tank. I usually dose kalk but I have paused since running it has put Ca over 500, with alk steady to slightly falling at 8.3.
Need to keep my alk steady while the Ca comes down a bit. Using washing soda for that now, but my Mg could benefit from a modest boost (1300’s), so thought Mg acetate might kill two birds with one stone.
Welcome your thoughts.
