    its a 2 part system + mag! dunno why they dont call it 3 part system. in reality its 4 chemicals(1 for Ca, 1 for Alk and 2 that are mixed for Mg). the Ca and alk are used daily or weekly on a maintainance schedual where as the Mg is (to my knowledge, no one auto doses or adds daily) only added as needed. its really darn simple once you get it in you hands and start using it. your going to have to trust us on this...DOOOO IIIIT!

    I purchase CA (1 part) and MG (2 parts) and then just use baking soda (arm & Hammer) for my ALK
