Your Mg is perfect for the other ratios why do you want to bring it up further? its exactly where it should be 1280 to 1350 is the magic area.

you can but its an expensive way of doing it, I would suggest using TM bio mag which is specifically designed for such things, once at the correct level you can then change over to part C

Yeah might be a reefers best thing but I figured a Half liter a day would maintain it. I may have to change salts sooner than later and pick up bio mag

I used 4l of Tailored Aquatics Mg to get mine to come up ~50ml. Michael, I was aiming for 1350 Mg based on what the ™ container said was optimum. If you say 1300 Mg is good well then awesome haahaa!

I am away for 2 weeks so I won't be fidgeting with the system for a while, which is good Stability promotes success!

Thanks for this thread, interesting for sure. Final stages of setting up a new system, in the past I've been a die hard believer in CA reactors because I've had good success. I've been thinking balling system for a while and this may have convinced me to give it a shot. From my research it's a bit more on monthly costs but less hassle then CR. Less hassles equals more free time which is more valuable then a few dollars of savings in this hobby. Wai's in Calgary has also been super helpful in understanding all the benefits of the TM 3 part system.

I'll post some results down the road...
