I make my own. If I had a small tank or a low demand tank I would use B-ionic or Two little fishes brands.

So two little fishes or B-iotic? I don't want to do the DIY stuff, because I don't want to have to correct my Ph, or mess it up.

I use B-Ionic 2 part and Tech M for Mg. In my experience B-Ionic is very easy to use, and is fairly forgiving if you screw it up. for Mg I only dose Tech M when I do my weekly water changes.

Thanks everyone, I got my dosers pinned down, not much left to decide before I get my tank! (Except working my butt off to get some cash first)
