yes again!
Another post about salt.
i use Aquaforest "sea salt" and i was wondering if it would be time to change to "Reef salt".
So i compared 2 batches.
The concentration of seasalt is based on 33ppt and reefsalt at 35ppt. I added 6% to each number of seasalt to compare.
The Ca and Mg is obviously higher, but this number does not matter to me, my doses of "All for reef" counterbalance rather well.
It is more the "trace elements" side that interested me.
I do not know if i am mistaken, but the 2 salts seem very similar.
I expected a more noticeable difference.
