With dosing methods (baling methods) you must do water changes for that exact reason.

The Balling Method calls for Magnesium Chloride as the chloride level of natural sea water are WAY higher than the natural and safe levels of Sulfate.

So basically use magnesium chloride instead or as well as magnesium sulfate.
