Ever since I got magnesium in check...my Ca/dkh levels are very consistent and a lot of my corals have regained color significantly. Excellent video!

Sorry for the repost. The previous version had messed up audio levels.

Great video, but what are common causes of rising Magnesium? Not dosing my tank but level rising!

[@muffemod]

Additional info for those fighting Bryopsis with Kent M. The actual "high" levels to fight Bryopsis should be raised to 2800ppm to 3800ppm.

Hello. What about high magnesium and all other parameters doing fine? O got only soft and LPS in my nano and never had the chance to make MG below 1350 ... My parameters are (1025 salinity, 7.5 KH, 440 Ca and 8.2 pH.. Mg was always around 1500 and no amonia or nitrate significant levels) should I worry?

Great video. I was considering dosing magnesium to my aquarium

[@AdvancedReefing]

If you are going to dose, don't forget to test your levels in advance :)

What isthe signs of low magnesium in the corals?

[@weyoungstrom]

what do you use to take your videos with and what do you use to edit them with?

[@AdvancedReefing]

I listed some of it in the video description. I shoot with a Canon C100 and edit with Final Cut Pro X.

[@weyoungstrom]

Darn...apple products.

[@derpychicken2131]

what is the coral at 2:16?

[@ticat.1614]

my mag. is lowering and my corals r being affected i add mag. but it lowers. what can be the cause and how can i maintain it ? please help

[@timesplit--ter2742]

Keep adding. it will never stay high. magnesium and calcium are being used by your algae and corals.

[@KentuckyHillbilly]

Yeah... more or less 1350 to 1450 magnesium ppm should be a goal.
