Magnesium Test Pro Aquaforest

Magnesium plays an important role in many biological processes, such as building hard coral calcium carbonate skeletons. Due to its unique chemical characteristics, it has a significant impact on the buffer capacity of sea water, and also prevents excessive precipitation of calcium carbonate on aquarium equipment. An adequate level of magnesium is crucial to maintain an appropriate balance of calcium and alkalinity in barrier aquariums. Magnesium levels should be analyzed regularly, along with other critical water parameters such as alkalinity and calcium. Magnesium concentration in natural sea water is between 1260 and 1500 mg/l (ppm). The test contains enough reagent to carry out about 55-60 measurements in that range.
