My girlfriend just bought out of the blue a bucket of aquaforest seasalt for me. My question is. Can I use this for my tank? I have a few softies and LPS in my tank right now and I don't dose anything. I have always used aquaforest reef salt and it will be my first time to use this AF seasalt...
Has anyone else noticed having to supplement a bit of magnesium between water changes with Instant Ocean salt?
I've noticed on like the last 3 water changes my magnesium level dipping below 1300 almost every time. This last time I did a larger water change due to increased phosphates and it's...

Hi all!
I like to support my LFS in anyway I can. One way is I purchase the salt they use. I’ve tested it’s Alkalinity and it’s bad. Not sure if it’s the batch because the salt seemed to have got moisture in it because it was hard but it did soften quickly when dropped on the floor like you...
What is this? I get so many different answers. Cyano is my final analysis but is it that. Should I get more snails? Which kind preferred? Also should I change the salt that I use? I get it from my LFS.
Wanted to know if anyone using Brightwell NeoMarine salt gets white residue in their mixing container, heater and mixing pump? I'm on my 3rd bucket of NeoMarine and every batch I mix leaves a white residue in my 5 gallon bucket or Brute 32 gallon trash can and all over my heater and mixing...
Anyone have any experience with this salt, I have been running HW Marinemix for years but order it by the pallet from Germany. Anyone have any experience with this salt? Apparently it is supposed to be ionically balanced and even better.
