alkalinity,calcium,magnesium

[g.mcclean]

I have been using ESV bionic 2 part additive. I have reached a calcium level of 412 ppm;alkalinity of 10.2 dKh; and magnesium of 891ppm. I am using a LaMott test kit for hardness and alkalinity. Now my two questions; Is the magnesium too low and if so how do I increase this? I hope not another additive. Also once i reach my goal, which except for Mg is about now, do I continue to add the two part additives daily? Thanks for any help.

I do think you're a bit on the low side....


This is a great article about Mg.
