Perfect Corals Magnesium Chloride Solution, Pre-Mixed
Transform Your Tank with Stable Magnesium, Stable Corals
Looking for a reliable way to keep magnesium dialed in without mixing powders or second-guessing your ratios? Magnesium is the unsung pillar of reef chemistry — when it drifts, calcium and alkalinity follow. A pre-mixed, ready-to-dose solution like this one removes the guesswork and keeps your parameters locked in.
Perfect Corals' Magnesium Chloride Solution is formulated with RO/DI water and pharmaceutical-grade magnesium chloride, delivering a precise and consistent dose every time. Each milliliter raises magnesium by 19.8 ppm per US gallon, giving serious reefers the accuracy needed for data-driven dosing. Maintaining magnesium in the 1,300–1,350 ppm range prevents calcium carbonate precipitation, stabilizes your calcium and alkalinity relationship, and supports healthy skeletal development in both SPS corals and coralline algae. For tanks running low — below 1,288 ppm — the solution can be dosed at up to 10 ml per 20 gallons daily to bring levels back into range efficiently.
