How low is it?
First start with this http://home.comcast.net/~jdieck1/chemcalc.html There are a few good choices out there. I use epsom salt for the occasional adjustment, Bulk Reef Supply has some good choices too. HTH Spleify

I use the SeaChem mag crystals to bring my magnesium up. Check first with the chemical dosing calculator at the top of the reef chemistry forum. It will tell you how much mag you need to bring up your level from A to B and most importantly how much you can add daily.

I discuss the relative merits of different DIY recipes here:
