Magnesium Chloride and Sufate ?
I just got the bulk supply of Mg chloride - hexahydrate flakes to start raising my Mg up from 1100.
Can I just use this one or do I need to add the chloride and sulfate to ionically balance the two for proper raising of Mg? I bought the flakes not thinking I needed the other one too. Any help is appreciated. Thanks! |

Walmart carries Mag sulfate, Epsom Salt.

The MAG flake alone is OK, but combined with mag sulfate (Epsom salt) is even better. Epsom salts alone is not a good way to go, IMO.
I compare the different DIY recipes here: Do-It-Yourself Magnesium Supplements for the Reef Aquarium http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2006-07/rhf/index.php
