I just placed my final order with you guys on my tank build and it included the ESV Bionic 2 Part and mag, don't know if that's considered 3 part lol. I use to run the BRS system on my past tanks but what won me over was the

minor and major trace elements

Easy to use. - I was deployed a lot and the wife had to mix and always got it wrong. Needless to say I got rid of the tank..... now I can just order jugs and All she has to do is add water.

I'm going to be using it with a doser in a sps tank.

Side note- thanks for carrying the cad pls 50 elite!!!

Goods should be in my house on tues!!!

Thanks so much for the order! The ESV B-Ionic is a comprehensive two part dosing system and I would start by just dosing the A & B components daily and only use the magnesium as needed.

Once you get on a solid dosing regime, test your calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium levels to ensure all are being maintained. It is likely you will only be needing the magnesium once a week or so based on the tanks demand.

Wish you the best and let us know if you have any more questions.

Hey robert, thanks for the reply and nice video on the pls elite!! on the way to the post office to pick my package up from you guys!!!!

does this system buffer itself out? equall parts of both and eventually it will take the same of cal and alk? thats crazy.

ill be dosing the mag daily even if its a 2ML to maintain that perfect level. we will see how it turns out.

I'm using that german calcium reactor you guys sell, the 1502 model. Very good build, I don't know if i had to do over maybe two part.
