    It is a dry heat, yeah right !

    Ahhh seriously!

    Terrible?

    I have been using it since 1987 with wonderful results. You may have your own
    preferences that is all fine and dandy, but do not come out with such a blanket statement as IO is terrible, that simple is not true.

    Sounds like an infomercial! I have used instant ocean for years and it has worked fine.

    Cheryl,

    All the professional tanks use it, so it must be terrible.

    I switched to table salt and found great results, my food never tasted so good. ;)

    And as Chris pointed out, it's what all the pros use, especially those with the "designer" corals.

    I have no interest using anything else.

    I agree there are better salts out there, I personally use Red Sea coral pro and LOVE it
