Salt Water Suggestions

I am in CA, so the air is pretty dry most of the time. I am very careful when scooping the salt out of the bucket and put to the mixing container. So far I have not had any issue with harden rock like salt mix.
I don't see anything wrong with pushing a product if you truly believe in the product. Your perception can be incorrect, but that is OK. Whoever listens to your suggestion should do their own homework to see if the products you are pushing can be applied in their cases.
Reputable people are good to follow; they save you a lot of time doing research. They can see the problem before you even start. I love those and often ask questions before jumping in and doing the research.

 

I use to use tropic Marin pro 8 years ago then it got too expensive. Changed to reef crystals...and then decided that IO was just as good and have never had a problem with it.
