red sea coral pro

I have just about completed my 1st 175 gallon bucket of red sea coral pro salt after switching back from io. I mix to 1.025 which according to the literature, should get my calcium readings in the 455-475 range. It lists the dKH range are 12.3 to 12.7 as well. After seeing my tanks water...

If you had to choose between Red Sea Coral Pro and Reef Crystals, which would you choose and why?

For the last 14 months or so I have used Red Sea Coral Pro. Bulk order during "Black Friday". I finally got to the bottom of bucket #6, so I decided to switch it up. I purchased a bucket of reef crystals and due to a sudden out break of green cyano I did a 44 gallon change over two days in my...

Hi there I'm just wondering if you could help me, My tank is currently filled with tmc pro reef salt, would it matter or affect my fish if I done a water change using Red Sea coral salt, does it matter if you keep mixing different types of saltwater, because where I get my tmc salt from is...

Hello I have a 125 reef with dual overflows. I am using a Reeflo snapper as a main pump with 4 outputs about 2000 gph. I have a Wavemaster Pro Wavemaker by red sea that I want to start using. What type of pumps should i use and how powerful. Thanks Smooth

Hey all, I need to order some salt in the near future. I have been debating on switching from RC to something else. Out of these three choices, which one would you choose and why? (New) Red Sea Coral Pro Instant Ocean Reef Crystals Oceanic Input, thoughts, etc appreciated!

Why is my new mix cloudy? I'm doing it as always and 24 hrs later the mix is cloudy. I was using Instant Ocean with no probs. Before that used Reef Crystals. But since I've switched, it's always cloudy. After adding to tank, the cloud does dissipate. I got the Red Sea Coral Pro mix since it's...

Are you using this and how does it compare to other salts you've used -mixing, water clarity, alk & ca levels, reef response...? Is it available locally and does it come in buckets? If so, how is it priced in comparison to other salts such as Red Sea Coral Pro and Tropic Marin? Same, more...

Hi Everyone! Its almost time for me to order more salt. Ive been using reef crystals for well over a yr now and have been very happy with it, but lately Ive been hearing bad things about it. Ive been hearing the calc levels have been off? So now I'm thinking I should try another type? If so what...

I've gone through 2 buckets of the Red Sea Coral Pro salt and am now on the 3rd bucket. I did not notice this in the prior 2 buckets, but the third bucket has small grey particles sparsely distributed throughout the salt. The particles are larger than the rest of the salt mix and are easily...

Can anybody recommend a test kit? Are there ones better than others or do they all test for the same stuff?

Since starting my new 70g a couple months ago, I've been having problems maintaining calcium and alk in my 70g reef, and suspected low Mg, so I tested, and sure enough it was way low (apx. 900-1000). I've only used Instant Ocean over the last several years, and after searching threads, have...

My first bucket of salt is almost finished and I want to change from Oceanic to Seachem Reef Salt. Will there be any problems if I do that??

Be careful using Aqua Stick Epoxy!!!!!! I used it & I have lost close to 15 stony colonies & frags!!!! It killed every coral I used it on, started at the bottom (RTN) & rapidly killed. In the morning I would notice a small spot at the bottom, say about a 1/4 inch, by time I got home from work...

I currently use NSW and was thinking of maybe switching to the artificial stuff. What brand mixes are you guys using? Also, do you have to supplement by adding calcium or raising alk?
