First, since I know you'll ask, my parameters:
temp 78, SG 1.025, pH 8.0, ammon/nitrites 0, nitrate 10
alk 10, CA 400, Mg 990
I'm using SeaChem Reef Salt and have been doing 8-10% PWCs weekly. I'm having trouble getting my magnesium up. I bought the B-Ionic two part buffer but haven't really used it since my CA/alk seem okay, and I also bought the B-Ionic magnesium buffer but I'm not sure how much to add.
My total tank capacity is 70G and I feel like an idiot but I can't understand the label for the mag supplement. It says to add 1.5 ml per gallon of capacity each day to raise the level by 15 ppm. That would mean 105 ml a day. The bottle is only 946 ml so is this bottle only enough for nine days or 135 ppm? My current level is 990 and I need to get over 1300.
Am I missing something here or is this whole 32 oz bottle not enough to get me where I need to be?? There's got to be a typo or I'm reading something wrong. Please help!!
