Mg 1520ppm Too High?

[horseplay]

I accidentally dosed too much Mg (even though I followed instructions) so not I have 1520 ppm. The corals seems to be doing fine. The rest of the numbers are 450 ppm Ca and 9dkh Alk. 0 PO4 and 0 Nitrate.

Should I bring down the Mg level with water changes to below 1400 ppm or I can let it go down naturally? My newly mixed water has around 1200 ppm Mg.

Joe a partial water change is always good in this case.

1520 isnt that high. A while back I had a batch of salt that brought my mag up above 1600. My tank had been on autopilot and u wasnt testing. I started to notice something was off and tested. Found it was the salt I had been using for over 2 months. I let it come back down naturally

Thanks for the response. I will leave it alone for now. The corals seem to be doing ok.

Tom - I can tell the bird nest I got from you is going to be a fast grower. I can see some growth every few days.

If you don't see a shock response you're OK but I'd do a water change anyway, never hurts and always helps.

That stuff grows well. Let me know how it does colorwise under those t5s. I brought the mother colony from tropiquarium and it was under halides in the main tank. Had this nice purple hue to it also.
