Need advice on 2 part dosing

[lastlight]

In the past I used the bulk chemicals from BRS. I have been using the ATI Essentials Pro without dilution on my current tank since it was setup. It seems to be working fine for me but to be honest I haven't actually tested my Mg in this tank ever so I have no idea what mine are at!

Stable with all the trace element in it for your corals
and not expensive if go for the big gallon for the year

Following...I’ve been thinking about using ATI pro myself. Any feedback on growth and coral health?
I’ve also been looking into the Aquaforest method but more a balling then 2 part.

Or you can go the route of de-icings salts as per Randy Holmes http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2006-02/rhf/index.php

I've gone both directions here but I've gone on the second option for the past 4 years mainly because I was able to get a 20kg bag of sodium carbonate which is more difficult to get (or make) than calcium chloride and magnesium chloride. Ease of acquiring the media dictates the direction I would go.
