Advantage Magnesium™ is a concentrated (80,000
ppm) optimized blend of magnesium, chloride, and sulfate
salts designed to restore depleted levels of magnesium
with minimal impact to the ionic ratios found in natural
sea water. Reef Advantage Magnesium™ contains
no ammonia! This is a common contaminant in every liquid
magnesium supplement on the market.
Severely depleted levels of magnesium (below 800 mg/L)
can cause depressed pH levels and an inability to maintain
proper calcium levels. Magnesium depletion is commonly
associated with the use of kalkwasser.
Sizes:
300 g, 600 g, 1 kg, 2 kg, 4 kg, 20 kg |

DIRECTIONS:
BEGINNER: Use 1 level teaspoon per 80 L (20
gallons*) twice a week. Dissolve in at least
one cup of freshwater. ADVANCED: Check magnesium
level, then follow dosing regimen above until
magnesium is adjusted to 1200–1350 mg/L.
Each dose will raise magnesium by about 5 mg/L.
Size or frequency of dose can be adjusted, but
do not exceed 25 mg/L per day. Thereafter, use
as required to maintain magnesium. EXPERT: After
determining the magnesium depletion rate, set
up a continuous drip system. Use the following
formula to determine how much to add to your
top-off water: t=0.01vm (t=teaspoons to add
to top off water, v=volume of tank in gallons*,
m=amount to raise magnesium in mg/L). For example,
if you want to raise magnesium by 10 mg/L in
a 50 gallon* tank, then you would add 0.01x50x10=5
teaspoons into the top-off water. HINTS: Use
the Reef Status:™ Magnesium, Carbonate
& Borate to check magnesium levels.
DO NOT OVERDOSE: Excess magnesium may enhance
the loss of carbonate alkalinity. Do not directly
mix with any carbonate supplement. Best if magnesium
& carbonate additives are added on alternate
days or at least 30 minutes apart. Slight clumping
of this product may be encountered but does
not impact its use; any clumps will break up
very easily.

may need Reef Advantage Magnesium™ if using
one of these products.
The most frequent causes of magnesium deficiency are
use of kalkwasser, frequently overdosing of a carbonate
additive, or low levels in the salt mix itself.

Kalkwasser™ is a pure
calcium hydroxide with unsurpassed purity and solubility
characteristics. This calcium hydroxide meets or exceeds
the purity of competing brands designated for reef
use. Calcium hydroxide is used to prepare limewater
(kalkwasser) solutions that are used in an automated
dosing system that replaces evaporated water. Kalkwasser
solutions maintain calcium directly and carbonate
alkalinity indirectly. However, its capacity to perform
these functions is dependent on evaporation rate and
CO2 concentration. more....

Carbonate™is a concentrated
(4,000 meq/L) optimized blend of carbonate and bicarbonate
salts designed to restore and maintain alkalinity
in the reef aquarium. Used as directed, Reef Carbonate™
will not deplete calcium, magnesium, or strontium
which usually tend to precipitate with increasing
alkalinity more....
