My [acronym:8366e67497="Local Fish Store"]LFS[/acronym:8366e67497] sells this "Ocean Pure 50 gallon Marine Salt Mix" for $8 per 50g bag. Anyone used this before? This is Made in China. Thanks

Never used it or heard of it. Most people use IO or one of the other big sellers. I've been using Kent but I'm seeing low pH with it (8.0). Do a search and you're sure to find several threads about various salt mixes.

can't find any reference over the web. I think I will go back to IO. I used Oceanic for last 90g, corals are very good but the all pink coral algea are gone....
