I've been told that ESV is more concentrated than BRS 2 part. But I've also heard that they are the same strength. What's everyone's experience?

Is it possible for the DIY mixers to add the Mag to our CA as well?
No, unfortunately.
You need access to sodium sulfate to make a balanced two part in only two parts. That chemical is not readily available to DIYers
OK, Jim.
Time for you to whip out your spread sheets and design the true two part DIY recipe.
Funny coincidence: Just last night, I started doing these calculations, because the amount of your DIY 2-part I'm dosing is increasing as my corals grow, and I'm starting to get worried about the peristaltic pumps' duty cycle. Dosing a more concentrated solution would help with that.
I'll have something to post shortly.....
I am going to start using this method for dosing. Just waiting for the sodium sulfate to ship.
I have been reading some threads where people recommend adding Borax to the Alkalinity solution. One person suggested to add it as high as 4:1. Should borax be added to balance the Alkalinity (Borate/Carbonate) solution? If so, how much should be added to Part 2 to keep this in balance?
Thanks for the help.
