Whats the difference between Mag Chloride and Mag Sulfate??

Rather than reinvent the wheel, here is a very nice pretty wheel :p
It is very long but very thorough. It deals with all aspects of Mg. For MgCl2 vs MgSO4, scroll to the DIY section :)

Essentially if you want to keep them in 'balance' you use a ratio of 10 chloride to 1 sulfate. Don't use just sulfate, but you can use just chloride if you do regular water changes.
