Best Salt Mix

[mike333]

What's the best salt to mix with my new ro/di water?

 

[MYTY1705]

personal choice, I use instant ocean and have had no problems. I know the lfs uses kent, others say red sea. Your choice just not kosher or margarita!!!

Instant Ocean is the #1 selling salt.

This is really a matter of personal preference and you will get several opinions here. Bottom line...get a salt that is fast desolving and keeps Ph steady. I use Coralife.

Instant ocean. It has more concentrated minerals and other elements that occur in ocean water, and comes in an easy to pour blue container.

I use Instant Ocean as well.

IO comes in bags too, I didnt know they had containers.

Am I the only one still using Oceanic? =/

Nope, I love Oceanic. IO was low on calcium, high on alkalinity. Oceanic is way more balanced.
