My Tank Thread
Just Curious, you read things all across the board on the topic of magnesium. I know the basics of chemistry and that magnesium is required to be present in proper quantity in order for corals to Calcify etc. What I am more interested in discussing is related to color and PE. I have very slowly been raising my mag and seem to have better PE for sure, possibly helping color as well. My consumption is also increasing so I have had to adjust my dosing.
So in your experience does Mag have a direct impact on color and PE? Or is it just important for the overall health of your tank? Where do you keep it?
I used to keep my mag down around 1300ppm and am slowly working my way upward sitting about 1350ppm now .
