Product Description
Seachem Advanced Magnesium
Reef Advantage Magnesium is a concentrated 80000 ppm optimized blend of magnesium chloride and sulfate salts designed to restore depleted levels of magnesium with minimal impact to the ionic ratios found in natural sea water.
Reef Advantage Magnesium contains no ammonia This is a common contaminant in every liquid magnesium supplement on the market.
Severely depleted levels of magnesium below 800 mgL can cause depressed pH levels and an inability to maintain proper calcium levels.
Magnesium depletion is commonly associated with the use of kalkwasser.
DIRECTIONS
BEGINNER Use 1 level teaspoon per 80 L 20 gallons twice a week. Dissolve in at least one cup of freshwater.
ADVANCED Check magnesium level then follow dosing regimen above until magnesium is adjusted to 12001350 mgL. Each dose will raise magnesium by about 5 mgL. Size or frequency of dose can be adjusted but do not exceed 25 mgL per day. Thereafter use as required to maintain magnesium.
EXPERT After determining the magnesium depletion rate set up a continuous drip system. Use the following formula to determine how much to add to your topoff water t0.01vm teaspoons to add to top off water volume of tank in gallons amount to raise magnesium in mgL. For example if you want to raise magnesium by 10 mgL in a 50 gallon tank then you would add 0.01x50x105 teaspoons into the topoff water.
HINTS Use the Reef Status Magnesium Carbonate and Borate to check magnesium levels.
DO NOT OVERDOSE Excess magnesium may enhance the loss of carbonate alkalinity. Do not directly mix with any carbonate supplement. Best if magnesium and carbonate additives are added on alternate days or at least 30 minutes apart. Slight clumping of this product may be encountered but does not impact its use any clumps will break up very easily.
