{"product_id":"magnesium-powder-750g","title":"Aquaforest Magnesium 750g","description":"\u003cp\u003eAquaforest Magnesium is a concentrated dry magnesium supplement for reef aquariums. Magnesium is essential to coral development and water chemistry: it lets calcium and alkalinity stay supersaturated and stable, so without enough of it you cannot hold proper calcium levels or pH. As a dry additive it is highly cost effective and, mixed into solution, performs as well as or better than liquid magnesium products.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart of the \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/aquaforest\"\u003eAquaforest\u003c\/a\u003e reef range.
