5 Great all around salt	01/18/2009 - by Vincent Edwards from Bloomington, IN US
I have used this salt for about a year now in my 40g. tank and I have had no problems or issues. The calcium levels are very good as is alkalinity. One thing I like is that this mixes up to 1.025 with the standard 1/2 cup per gallon of R/O measurement. Many other salts only mix to 1.023 so you have to use more salt to get the correct salinity. I know several other reefers who use this salt as well with equally good results.
1 Not all it's craked up to be	03/16/2008 - by mark scarpena from tonawanda, NY US
I bought this because everyone said it's the best of the best. I sprung for the extra monay and I am very disappointed. I used it for about 3 months and my hammer corals that I have had for 4-5 years started to decline. The heads started to fall off of the base. So I switched back to Reef Crystals and all of my LPS are looking better. Very disappointed. Lost about 12 heads of my very very nice green and purple hammer coral. Will not buy again or reccomend to anyone. I have about 80-100 gallons of salt left that will probably get tossed in the end.
5 Is this salt really more expensive?	02/25/2007 - by Don Bossung from Lincoln, NE US
In my opinion, I don't think so. In actual dollars and cents the cost difference between IO and TM is $5US. When I mix these two in the same manner, (RO/DI airate 24hrs, add salt to 1.025, and mix 24hrs) the IO is is usually at 340/350ppm calcium and 9.5-10dkh alkalinity. With TM it is 410-420ppm calcium and 10-10.5dkh alkalinity. The latter is much closer to what I want so I don't have to add additives to the TM to get there like IO. Plus, compared to the cost of the critters in my tanks, the extra $5 is really a non-issue. Again it is probably me and the way I do maintenance, but I always get more green turf like algae when I use IO.
5 Great Mix	09/21/2005 - by Brittany Williams from Reading, PA US
If I were spending someone else's money, I would have to buy Tropic Marine, because it truly is the most rapidly disolving product I have used, and the quality control is outstanding. However, Instant Ocean is just as effective, and it is cheaper so...
