I do use a Salifert Magnesium test kit. I also run a Kalk reactor on both systems and drip with top-off water 24/7. The reactors stir the Kalk 4 times a day for 15 minutes at a time. I have a basement fishroom and my PH remains in the range of 7.8 to 8.0 as the A/C running all summer has an effect on it's level. In the fall and winter its more in the 8.2 range as I have a vent that's open for fresh air in the room.
