magnesium ... it helps make the jar bigger

Oh jeez, now folks with 10g nanos are going to dump in Mg cuz Gary told them it would make it bigger ;)

Only if you have jelly beans in your nano. Now that I think of it, that may be a better use for a nano for a lot of people.

Question? Would it be ok to altenate between Oceanic and Instant Ocean with water changes or would I be looking for trouble.

My opinion is that stability is a better approach. Its not that hard to supplement so why mess with alternating. It sounds like your systems doesn't have a very high demand to start with. Remember there are other demands on alkalinity besides coral growth. It gets used up by the acids produced by bacteria that are a large part of your biological treatment systems.

Very true, Thanks again Gary
