ESV salt - low Mg.

So after a few water changes, and even more testing done, it seems like the Mg is around 1150 which I'm not happy about. Low salinity as well...

 

Next water change I'll start with 2 gallons of water instead of 3 which is the usual, add everything in there , then test and add more RO/DI to get to desired SG.

 

In the meantime, I wanted to get B-ionic Magnesium to bump up the levels . Based on the calculator found on RC, looks like I need about 400ml to get to 1350 from 1150.

 

My question is, can I use instead the Magnesium found in the small bag that came with the salt mix? Or is it hard to guess what the levels will be in a certain amount of water?

 

Just thought I'd ask before buying the B-ionic Mg liquid.

 

Thanks
