Doing a water change trying to get salinity up to 1.026 instead of 1.024. I thought it was an anomaly last time with the Tropic Marine Pro reading Mg at 1500 ppm but found same reading again this batch of salt water. It is a new patch of Tropic Marine Pro and new Salifert Mg test kit so not sure what to blame.
