Calcium-405PPM(mini labor)
MG-1005PPM(salifert)
Ammonia-0PPM(sera-old test kit)
ever since i switched fr marine environment 2 the above, i always hav problem wif the KH, dun talk abt raising it, maintaining it is already a problem.
there was a period of time i oso had problem wif the MG. luckily did some tests today.

Coralife would be a good choice... First, its very easy to dissolve and the parameters are quite good. I tested the water parameters of coralife recently, didnt test NO3 though.
Calcium - 550ppm (good for water change, save money on addictives
)
kH - 7
Mg - 1200ppm
Rather impressive I must say.. considering the price.
