I was reading on another board..r e e f c e n t r a l...
They had a discussion come up posted by Reef Mainiac and there were some replies to it. http://www.animalnetwork.com/fish2/a.../1/default.asp
is a site where tests were done on the make ups of many types of sea salt. It also says that IO has the least Phosphates out of all.
Mr. Salty-your post with the pictures they say was not htat reliable due to that u had phos in your water already and that the type of test you used were found ineffective or something...

is the thread...
here is a cut off of a post -
"I believe you are referring to the Christmas Eve post by Mr. Salty on https://www.saltwaterfish.com where he posted that found phosphates in his home test of a sample of saltwater mixed with Instant Ocean, right? In that same thread, you may remember, others posted that their home tests showed no phosphates in their saltwater mixed with Instant Ocean.
Here are the results of a very scientific, controlled test done by Dr. Craig Bingman. You will notice that Instant Ocean tested the lowest in phosphate. http://www.animalnetwork.com/fish2/a.../1/default.asp
So either Instant Ocean salt mix is changed since Dr. Bingman's testing or Mr. Salty's test was unreliable."
Just thought u guys might want to know becuase I know there was a discussion about it before. This may clear some things up as to salt content.
