What one dose does
PARAMETER
1 g / 100 L
Magnesium
+1.2 ppm
To raise magnesium by 50 ppm in 100 L: 41.7 g.
How it’s used
Dissolve in RODI per label (10 g per 1000 ml as published) and dose by test results; can share a solution with Calcium or Reef Mineral Salt.
Cautions
• Raise Mg no more than 50 ppm per day
• Published recipe (10 g/L) is unusually dilute: 50 ppm/day would need ~4 L per 100 L - verify the label on your tub

Sources
Possible typo on the EN page (10 g vs a more typical 100 g per L); internally consistent arithmetic, so per-gram value is safe. Recommended Mg 1180-1460 ppm.
