    Tropic Marin Classic Sea Salt issue... is this the same issue as Pro?

    I only use Tropic Marin classic sea salt and figured my issue had to be unrelated to the current Pro Reef recall. But 2-3 months ago, my mixing tank got this dark brown/redish residue. Bleach did nothing but citric acid seemed to work in making it go away. I figured it was an iron issue and...

    Triton Pure 2.0 Salt vs RedSea Blue and Tropic Marin Pro

    Just restarting my tank and going Triton. My question is what is the actual difference between the Triton 2.0 Pure Red Sea Blue and Tropic Marin Pro? 1) The first that I can see is that the 2.0 Pure is far far more expensive! Is it justified, or are the other two just as good for the Triton...
