I went to a new LFS today and they said I should try Sea chem's Reef Fusion that it was better than Kent's A&B. I have always used Kent's. Have any of you tried either of these this products? If so what is your opinion on them.

Did a little research ... They claim that it mixes better than other brands in a 1:1 ratio. I know that some brands, specifically Brightwell's can almost never be used in a 1:1 ration, I always end up with WAY more Ca left over at the end of a month and my Alk buffer container is depleted. I would use it and try it out and post up your numbers. I'm really curious, because I'm in the market for a new two part, mine is almost empty...

Every tank is different when it comes to two parts and what's needed. I was using Coralife for a long time because of some issues and needed way more alk buffer than ca, so it was never even and the alk needed to be added at 15mL per day.
I've recently switched salts to AquaVitro Salinity and thus far have not seen a need to buffer, but I probably will start to do it every 3 days and see how things go after I go one more week with this salt and seeing how parameters are first.
