Salt/ Borate Question

[PUGroyale]

Randy,

I've been reading the SeaChem salt threads and related links. Maybe I missed this but in the test you did using IO salt, you state it has elevated levels of boron compared to NSW. Is it high enough that it will significantly effect my total Alk testing with my Salifert kit? Thanks :)

No, there is not enough borate in IO salt to significantly skew a total alkalinity test. :)
