    I'm currently raiseing my mag in 20mg/l every other day to get it from 1240 to 1350, question is can i take it this high without touching my calcium and then bring up my calcium or is it best to raise some mag and then some calcium, alternatley or does it not matter?

    I would raise the Mg first, then worry about Calcium and Alkalinity. That's how I do it.

    Keep raising your Mg but keep an eye on the Ca too.
