MGPlus Lab 2L

MGPlus Lab is a magnesium supplement for reef aquarium keepers whose corals need a stable Mg level for healthy growth. It is intended for tanks where magnesium is measured and topped up deliberately, rather than left to chance.

Why it matters

• Supports calcium uptake: the manufacturer states that an adequate magnesium level allows corals to absorb calcium more effectively.
• Predictable dosing: 10 ml raises magnesium by 10 mg/l (ppm) in 100 litres of water, so the effect of each dose can be calculated for a given tank volume.
• Target range: the recommended magnesium level is 1180–1460 mg/l (ppm).
• Dosing based on the tank: the manufacturer advises dosing according to the individual needs of each system, which means testing first and adjusting from the results.

What it works with

MGPlus Lab is designed for reef aquariums containing corals, where it is used together with the rest of the Aquaforest Lab micronutrient line. Dosing volume depends on the water volume of the tank and the magnesium result from a water test, so the product fits any system size as long as the dose is calculated from measured values.
