In reef, the adequate magnesium level is between 1300 and 1350 mg/l. A bad magnesium level can cause problems in raising the calcium and Kh level when using the Balling method or a limestone reactor. It is therefore important to maintain its level at a correct value.

To test your magnesium level, there are many solutions on the market. Zoanthus.fr has chosen Salifert tests for their low prices and their precision.
