Buy the box, save money.
| Comments |
I have used this salt for almost a year now. I have to say that unless I see a great deal on another brand I do not think that I will change brands. My corals are doing well, my tank is stable and I have had no adverse deaths in the past year.

| Liked about it |
Nutrient levels are high, good for corals and inverts. The cost of the box is a significant cost savings, then you can refill a bucket. The box method is a much greener method. The salt mixes easily. The separate bags that the salt comes in helps to keep the salt viable if you get some of the salt accidentally wet.

The box is really heavy.

Only thing I use
| General |
Always gives me good levels when mixing. With it being readily available in most stores it's got a reasonable price. if you're going to use lots of this product you're better off buying it in the bucket though to avoid moisture getting in and causing lumps of salt which are not a big deal if you break them up before mixing. |
| Liked about it |
consistent levels, price
|
| Didn't like |
bag allows moisture to get in

Good bucket refill
| General |
A solid base salt for most tanks with a long standing good reputation. It is more of a refill for the buckets than a container by itself. |
| Liked about it |
Good solid levels and competitively priced. A much better buy than smaller lots of salt if you use it very quickly at all.
|
| Didn't like |
Requires supplementation for high growth SPS or clam tanks. If you plan on leaving this in the bag be prepared for clumps.

Works like a charm!
| General |
Very nice.
Especially for someone who uses this salt in mass amounts.
Such as 20 gallons a change.
Even more then that, and it's still nice! |
| Liked about it |
I like how cheap it was.
The 25gal was about $14, the 50gal was only $18 or $19!
I don't use it on a regular basis, only when I need a immediate water change.
I like how you can mix the salt and use it immediately, you don't have to wait!
|
| Didn't like |
The bag idea.
I'm afraid that there is too much moisture getting in.
I use little ties to hold it shut, but I think having a bucket would be nicer.
