Hi all,
did a thorough testings check yesterday as haven't done it for around 3 months and i had the time to do it all.
my question is whether you can have too high a reading for magnesium. was using a salifert test kit and got to the end of the liquid in the dropper and the solution had still not changed from a pink colour to a grey or blue colour. This corresponds with an Mg reading of 1500+.
Is this an issue?
other results as follows:
Salinity: 1.027 (am trying to slowly bring this back down to 1.025/1.026)
pH: 8.1
kH: 8
Nitrate: 5
Nitrite: 0
Ammonia: 0
Phosphate: 0
Calcium: 425
Magnesium: 1500+
tank is a 24g Nano with a selection of softies, LPS and a few frags of SPS.
