What test kits are you using? Are you using a Hydrometer or Refractometer? Your Mag isn't really that high. Any chances of testing your makeup water before adding it to your tank?
Levels were tested with.
Salinity 1.026 via Deep Six Hydrometer
Amonia 0 ppm via API Master Test Kit
Ph 7.8 via API Master Test Kit
Nitrites 0 ppm via API Master Test Kit
Nitrates 0 ppm via API Master Test Kit
Phosphates 0.08 ppm via API Hannah Checker
Calcium 500 ppm via Red Sea Reef Foundation Pro Multi Test Kit (Ca,Alk,Mg)
Alkalinity 9.8 dKH via Red Sea Reef Foundation Pro Multi Test Kit (Ca,Alk,Mg)
Magnesium 1440 ppm via Red Sea Reef Foundation Pro Multi Test Kit (Ca,Alk,Mg)
I added some SeaChem Marine Buffer to raise the pH because 7.8 is too low.
