Does anyone use coral bones by TLF for the calcium reactor? Does this medium supply magniseium or do i need to dose magnisum? I have run it for a few months now and notice it helps alknanity and calcium of course, probably not so much on magnesium. Anyone knows? Thanks!

So I have done this as well and found the best practice is to boil the dead coral or allow to bleach n the sun but give it a good fresh water RO rinse before using crush up and rinse again. It does not add mg but helps to maintain mg unless your system is using to much on a daily basis. I have a 350 DT and am dosing 50 ml mag per day to keep up. I have ver 100 colonies of sps. Hope this helps
