Aquaforest Magnesium Test Kit

Aquaforest Magnesium Test Kit is designed to quickly measure the concentration of Magnesium (Mg) in marine water. Magnesium plays an important role in many biological processes, such as, taking part in the construction of a hard coral calcium carbonate skeleton. Due to its unique chemical properties, it has significant impact on seawater buffering capacity, and prevents excessive precipitation of calcium carbonate on aquarium equipment. Adequate level of Magnesium is crucial in maintaining proper Calcium and Alkalinity balance in reef aquaria. Mg levels should be analysed regularly, together with other critical water parameters like Calcium and Alkalinity. The concentration of Magnesium in natural seawater is between 1260-1460 mg/l (ppm). Test Kit contains sufficient reagents to perform approximately 55-60 separate tests within that range.
