how do i keep nitrates low

The combonation of osmo prep and the 2 part should bring your PH up. The biggest thing that will happen is that your Alk will increase which will help with your calc of course this will only really work if you Mag is around the correct levels.
 
Remember to take it slow and make adjustments but do so in a manner that you can determine if the change has helped or not. Do not add Magnesium until you have tried the osmo prep and two part buffer for at least 14 to 21 days. Then if the mag is still low you can add that to your list of things to do but Ill bet it wont be. Anyways keep us posted. on your progress. Good luck and I agree it is a good idea to test for mag also so you know where it is at.
