Mg and Ca are available from different sources not always associated with the hobby. @Randy Holmes-Farley has a number of DIY recipes with sources here in the states. You might be able to find suitable replacements in Denmark. Sorry I don't have the links. :(
Sadly, not many things are readily available here. Simple things like bleach, washing soda etc. are not stuff we use much here, so obtaining them is difficult if even possible.

Red Sea Coral Pro. It gives me nothing but success compared to other salts.

This will be a challenge question as most everyone has a favorite brand based on:
Price
Availability
Performance
Popularity

For me- best salts I’ve used are:
Aquaforest
Seachem Salinity
tropic Marin

Currently using tropic Marin

Possible to buy, but $34 shipment, so looking at $100+ per 50lbs bag.

True. As mentioned, I was merely wondering if my results where 'typical' with some very high and low numbers.
Aquaforest will be the far easiest to obtain around here.
