What in your opinion would be the most important supplement to add in a reef to maintain a balance

[mandrin]

Hey guys trust u well,
was just thinking in many of you guys opinions wat would you think the single most important supplement additive, you would think is the most important.
I was thinking magnesium well reason if this was off the calcuim optimum levels will not be reached .
Failing to achieve this level all other levels will be point less or unattainable!
Guys wats your take on this?
I think this thread will be helpfully to all of us .
excuse my errors if so
thanks guys our hobby rocks !!!!

I'd say alkalinity definitely. Drops the quickest and if left low you could get stn.

I don't think there is a single most important supplement. more than one thing needs to be added to keep a system balanced.

Agree with 459b, but...

I was thinking magnesium well reason if this was off the calcuim optimum levels will not be reached .

If I was forced to choose one it would probably be Magnesium, as this assists in keeping both Calcium and Alkalinity in balance.

I suggest CARX If right media(Caribsea) is used, it addresses ALK, CA, MG and trace elements (My important elements). It delivers it completely balanced as nature intended.

I have had SPS survive at an Alk of 5.6dkh (Negligence)

Could be a trick question

Kalk and magnesium for me... its actually all I dose

 

[PeterAmos]

I'd go for water, as without it everything suffers.
No seriously for me its one combination, Alk, Mag and cal.
