To make a typical stock solution add 105g of dry MgSO4 to 500ml of RO or distilled water and then add 24ml of this per 100L of tank.
this will give you 5 ppm increase of MAGNESIUM
The target is 5 ppm per week if you useEI METHOD
Dosing: 1g of MgSO4 with give you 1 ppm increase of MAGNESIUM in 100L (26 US gallons) of water.
The target is 5 ppm per week if you use
EI METHOD
Also used in a ration of 1:3 with CaSO4 (Calcium sulphate) (1 part MgSO4:3 parts CaSO4) to make your own GH mix for a freshwater aquarium.
Amounts above are for reference only. Your planted aquarium may need more or less depending on many factors.
