what brand of salt does everyone use?:D

[derrikd]

IO

 

[hairtrigger]

I use kent. But only because my lfs sells it for 35 bucks for a 200 gallon bucket.

 

[luvnluk]

I have always had good luck with IO - "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". I think someone on this board told me that !

 

[tahoe ocean]

Chalk up one more for Instant Ocean. Haven't had any problems yet.

Instant Ocean

 

[bambalamb]

Add 1 vote for Reef Crystals. I have used IO but -- doesn't cost that much more. Gotta agree that it doesn't dissolve that well but I don't have anything to compare it to.

 

[richard rendos]

This has to be the most asked question on the board. The majority always comes out to Instant Ocean. I use IO, but have used Reef Crystals, Kent, and Red Sea in the past wih no complaints.

Who manufactures marinemix bio-essay?

 

[josh]

Madd,
Crystal Sea makes bio assay. Are you looking to hop on the bandwagon after Dr. Ron's article

 

[adrian]

So I guess IO and the whole China thing is just a case of he said she said?

 

[saltyj]

Coral Life, but only because I got a free shirt with a five gallon bucket. I am gonna buy Instant Ocean next, cause it has a free mixing pump with it.

 

[mystery wrasse]

Something wrong with table salt?
J/K My vote is for IO or whatever is on sale. I have used many brands w/o problems.

 

[madd catt]

bio-sea seems to be an enhanced version of thir first salt mix forty-fanthoms which goes back too the early seventies,where is the article,in what magazine?

WOW! In Detroit, Reef Crystals are more expensive that IO by about $5 a bag, or by $30 a bucket. I want to switch to --, but IO is always on sale for $10 a bag.

 

[adrian]

$10 a bag !!! Im lucky if I can get it for under $20, and -- is usually cheaper by $3-$4

 

[chinnyr]
