i like your tanks tim look very nice looks like that salt works well for you

[Saltydrip]

Instant ocean works if you dose. I use reef crystals because I don't have very demanding corals and get by just fine with water changes..

Seachem's Salinity

[MondoBongo]

i started out with regular Instant Ocean. then i moved to Instant Ocean Reef Crystals.

then switched to SeaChem Reef Salt, briefly tried SeaChem Salinity but the bucket i got was hard to dissolve and often came out cloudy, so i am back to SeaChem Reef Salt.

Timfish, do you dose anything at all with your instant ocean?

[SUPERSTOCKRACER]

regular IO for years now! reef crystals made my levels unbalanced.

Timfish, do you dose anything at all with your instant ocean?

The first video with the green slimmers has both calcium and kalkwasser reactors and 30 gallon water changes weekly. The second video, Simple Simon's Reef, gets a 1/4 cup of Caribsea's aragamight every 10 or 11 days with a 20 gallon water change with tap water.

This question should be a sticky...lol i see this every other day :) and like always there is no uniform answer to this.
Red sea regular blue bucket.

[Spawn234]

Real ocean water, but then I am a little biased.

[eschulist]

Im using Red Sea Coral Pro.

The people that said they use this over Coral Pro, why the switch? Since I run biopellets and pretty much have a ULNS its been suggested to keep Alk lower around 7, should I make the switch to the blue bucket as well?

No the exact question, but this should help people decide what salt to use

Hopefully the change is an improvement in my sps and coloration.
