Hi everyone,
Does magnesium usage in a reeftank decrease as the tank matures? Right now I lose about 30-50ppm Mg. per day and have to add magnesium to the tank every other day to keep it around 1350ppm. The tank is only 2 months old and I still have a lot of LR that's not covered w/ coraline algae.
I was wondering if as time goes on I'll have to adjust Mg concentration less. I use up a $50 container of salifert's Mg additive in about 3-4 days
