I think almost any parameter can be dangerously over-corrected... if you don't follow the dosing instructions...

In my experience, it was completely effortless to overcorrect high nutrients into even more problematic ZERO nutrients by running a fleece roller, protein skimmer and algae turf scrubber at the same time... never again :grimacing-face:

Magnesium and potassium, the tests aren't reliable. The test results and dosing never made sense, positive consumption one week and negative the next, it only made sense when I realised the tests weren't accurate. ICP only for those from now on.
