Those numbers are good though no need to dose magnesium daily. For me I like to bring my magnesium up to 1500ppm and allow it to gradually fall. Once it gets around 1300ppm I raise it over a span of 3-4 days back to 1500ppm + or -.

My Tank Thread
Even people who do dose magnesium daily likely do not need to. I doubt anyone has demand much more than about 2 ppm per day (which assumes a pretty high calcification rate).
So even in those cases, dosing one a week would cause a quite low swing in magnesium (say, 1330 ppm down to 1316 ppm over a week then back to 1330 ppm with dosing).
