Kent tech m , dump whole bottle in?

[Zack420]

So trying to raise mag to 1500ppm currently at 1300ppm. I have about 120g of water .

This says I will have to use about 48oz to raise it to 1500ppm . You think I should dump the whole thing in ? I've started w 4 oz dosings a day w no raise in magnesium . Bryopsis is why I'm trying to raise FYI . Test kit is Red Sea mag pro. Thank you

I would not dump the whole bottle in at once.

Usually you want to only raise it 100ppm a day, but I went about 150 perday when I treated my tank.

I use this calculator.

I agree 100ppm per day and spread the dose out throughout the day.

Ive dumped the whole bottle in throughout the day with no ill affects.

I agree with others as far as the pace at which you raise your mg. Do you have turbo snails? I rid my tank of bryopsis with turbos. However, I find that it's usually the last thing that they'll eat.

Yea I have 3/4 Mexican turbos and a couple Astraea .
