Im never buying IO or RC salt again. I use to use Coralife salt all the time, started buying IO cause it was cheaper, soon there after I started having tank problems. 6 months later everything was out of whack. I went back to coralife salt, a couple of water changes later everything is perfect.
Check this out and compare the salts. Coralife is the best all around salt out of all they tested. Reef Salt Analysis
Here is where another guy tested them all for Ca, DKH and MG. A General Guide to Salt Mixes _________ "Zoanthid, Notice that this word contains only a single "o." A zoo is a place where animals are kept on display, whereas zo-(rhymes with toe) is a prefix meaning "animal." This is a simple point, but I can't overstate how it grates on the ears of folks who know better. My advice in any endeavor would be to know the correct pronunciations of its words; otherwise we seem less-informed than we truly are." Renaming Our Corals  | |
