Ok well I have been having battles not being able to find my salt of choice so since Oceanic released some new salt I figured Id do some research and found that ppl on RC were coming up with some impresive #s as in Ca, Alk, Mg, Ect so I figure I would try and find some and found a 200gal bucket on sale for 39.99 so i picked it up and brought it home.. First thing that I noticed is that it is very fine and almost dissolves as quick as you can pour it in... After about 10 mins it is perfectly clear... I overmixed the first batch due to it being so fine and didnt have and Ro/di on hand to fix it so i am waiting for that but here are the numbers at 40ppt which are Extremely Impresive.. this is after about 15 mins of being in the tub mixing with a powerhead..
Sg 40ppt
pH 8.0 with ph meter and rising
Alk 3.20
Ca 630
Mg 1950
the Ca and Mg levels are a bit high but I believe this is 100% due to the fact of the Sg being at 40ppt.. I plan to retest as soon as its brought down to 35ppt.. Weeeeeeee I found the salt of my dreams.. If you want me to test anything else Pleaseeee let me know and I can test just about whatever.. Every test kit is either Seachem or Salifert or digital..
