    well my mag test just got here so I have all the test kits I need.

    I will get the results up in a bit. It's been three weeks since a water change so lets see where I'm at :)

    I tested mag, alk, and calcium today.
    heres what I got
    mag-1120
    calc-380
    alk-2.2 meq/l

    I know that the mag is a bit low, how should I go about raising it? I have bottles of calc, mag, and alk supplements so I can raise whats needed. But would I just do mag or will it make my other levels drop? and should I add it all at once? or over time?
