This guide is for reef aquarium hobbyists looking to maintain optimal magnesium levels for calcification and overall organism health. Aquavitro Reef Ions provides a highly concentrated, ammonia-free liquid magnesium supplement to efficiently restore depleted levels, preventing issues like depressed pH and calcium imbalances. A key benefit is its purity and high concentration, allowing for precise dosing. However, users must carefully monitor magnesium levels to avoid over-supplementation.

The generally recommended range for magnesium in a reef aquarium is between 1250 mg/L and 1350 mg/L.
It is recommended to test magnesium levels at least once a week, or more frequently when first establishing the correct level or after adding new livestock or corals.
No, it is best to dose directly into the main aquarium water with good flow, away from skimmers or filter intakes, to ensure proper distribution.
While magnesium is present in all marine environments, this product is specifically formulated and recommended for reef aquariums where calcification is a primary concern. For fish-only tanks, magnesium supplementation may not be necessary unless a deficiency is specifically identified.
The product typically has a shelf life of 2-3 years when stored properly in a cool, dry place with the cap sealed. Check the packaging for specific lot information.
Aquavitro Reef Ions is unique because it is the first and only liquid magnesium supplement that utilizes a proprietary process to achieve a high concentration (90,000 mg/L) without containing ammonia.
Ensure you are using a reliable test kit and that the dosage is appropriate for your aquarium volume and magnesium deficiency. Check for unusually high consumption rates due to a very high bioload or rapid coral growth. Verify that no other additives are interfering with magnesium uptake or measurement.
You may have overdosed. Discontinue dosing immediately and perform a water change. Monitor pH and magnesium levels closely. Reduce future doses and increase frequency if necessary, always dosing slowly and incrementally.
Low magnesium can inhibit calcium uptake. Ensure magnesium is in the proper range (1250-1350 mg/L) before trying to adjust calcium. Once magnesium is stable, re-evaluate calcium levels and supplement accordingly.
