Insant Ocean Reef Crystal 200 gallon Box

[SauceyReef]

I am thinking of getting the Instant Ocean Reef Crystal 200gallon box, but I am curious how the salt is stored inside. Does the box contain two big buckets of salt? Or multiple plastic bags of salt. Anyone ever get the box and have any problems? Getting to keep the bucket is nice because I always use them.

4 50 gallon bags.

Yeah it comes in 4 individual bags. I just open a couple at a time and dump them into my reef crystals bucket.

Oh that is really smart. I am just going to do this.

Or buy a 45 gallon brute container Fill with rodi dump bag, stir and you have perfect water everytime

Agreed to get salinity to 1.26 for reefs the 50 gal bag makes about 45 gallons. At 1.23 for fish only it will yield 50 gallons which is the label claim!

What I could really use some help with is knowing at which point of filling my 45 am I actually at 45 gal?

I have a 5g bucket from Home Depot that is marked at quarts and gallons… used it to mark every 5 gallons on my 55g mixing barrel.

It contains 4 bags of salt.

And don’t open box with a razor knife. Bags are packed pretty tight in there.

I think the better deals are still @ Petsmart. You can get the reef crystals bucket for $39.99 and the Purple bucket for $37.99. If you spend over $50 you get 25% off your entire order. I loaded up the other day.

You can buy three buckets for under $22 each at Petsmart.
Add three buckets to your petsmart cart and then go to checkout. The total drops to $65 plus tax.
if you buy less than that, the discount is less. You have to buy at least 3 buckets to get the best pricing.
