Hi reefer
I been using bionic two parts and also bionic transition element.
My question is, I feel like I am missing magnesium the whole time. But the tank is doing fine, does anything know how and what is keeping my magnesium in check?
Thanks

Low absorption by coral.
What test kits are you using as you could be getting false readings .

I am not even testing it. My current tank is anemone and clownfish harem, should I just not worry about the magnesium?

Also have a softie tank, does soft coral use up lots of magnesium?

Softies don’t and you can check quarterly taking a water sample to a trusted LFS
Recommended mag is 1300
