Hello! I was out of my Mg supplement and procrastinated on a new order. As a result, my tank Mg has gone down to 1080. I now have the supplement to add. Question is - what is the maximum I can raise the Mg safely? I think I remember reading 100 ppm in a 24 hour period is the max?
If so, it brings me to my next question. The recommended dose for C-Ionic is 1.5ml per gal which raises Mg by 15ppm. At this rate, it will take me 16 days to raise it to 1325, not even taking account the daily consumption rate. That doesn't right to me.
Can I add more than the 1.5 ml per gal a day? If the 100ppm max is correct, can I add the required B-Ionic to raise it by say 90ppm per day, which will take me 3 days to get to 1325. This is my first time using B-Ionic (used HyperReef thus far) so I'm not exactly sure how this product works.
Thanks for the input!
EDIT: I'm dosing Kalk via the ATO and my Alk and Ca levels are spot on (3 meq & 440 respectively).
