I am having difficulties controlling/ getting my magnesium to increase in my 110 gallon tank. My current setup has a Korallin Calcium Reactor
witch keeps my calcium at a steady 460 ppm. My salt is 1.025. PH is 8.3. KH is 170. Ammonia is good. No nitrates or nitrite. I am currently using Seachem Magnesium and dose 6 teaspoons about twice a week. The salt that I use is Neomarine. The test kit that I use to test for magnesium is ELOS Magnesium test kit. I have dosed this last week twice starting with a magnesium level of 1000. After testing yesterday my magnesium is still 1000. I have performed many water changes to try to get my values up in the last month. I am going to have a friend use a different test kit to confirm results. I was just hoping to hear some suggestions on what to do? Or see if anyone knows why my magnesium is being used up so quickly?
