Hello. If any of you have tested different salts after making up batches of RO/DI and mixing in the salt, which high quality brands of salt did you find had the highest Calcium?
Thanks!

Oceanic has an inconsistently high (I've seen up to 600ppm in a fresh batch) amount of Ca, with a low Alk (so its not balanced). Mixing Oceanic and IO or using ReefCrystals is a good compromise.

I went from IO to RC because its supposed to have more calcium and trace elements, i have heard Tropic Marine has a balance of everything.
