Are my parameters ok?

[Fishninja]

After coming back from a two week vacation I am struggling to figure out what is going on with my parameters.
Tank is a 45 gallon that is well stocked with coral, however I have never had problems keeping my levels where they should be with just water changes.

Now after multiple water changes my parameters are: Alk 6.9, mag 1260, and calcium at 425.
Should I raise the magnesium or is it ok where it is? I know that alk should be at 7 so should I raise it too? Also, won't raising the alk bring down the mag?
Sorry for all the questions but I am getting lost here.

Have you done a water change yet? If not, that would probably help with the mag levels. It's on the low side of most suggested ranges, but not to the point where you should do anything drastic to fix it. A 45 gallon aquarium is likely to have more parameter swings than a larger aquarium and from my experience a couple of well timed water changes is way easier and way cheaper than playing around with supplements.

^^^^agreed. And or, do some additional 5g WC over the next week.
