Changing salt question

[AntarcticIkeelu]

So if money was no object, which salt mix would everyone use. For Paramaters I try to keep my alk at 8.8-9dkh, calcium at 420, and mag between 1300-1400

I'd give this a try!

Haha I did say if money was no object. That would probably work if i had a small tank but I have a 150 so I'd have to get 3 of them for each water change.

To help offer some clarity looking for something that will make roughly 150-200 gallons per bucket/box

Not too sure price makes any salt that much better than another. If I had the time and wanted to get my salt exactly the same every time I’d go with EVS. Look at the makeups of each salt and buy the one that fits your needs.

I guess the reason I said price is no object is because people often choose mixes based on their price among other things. So if price wasn't taken into consideration, would people still use the same salt, or try something else.

So far I'm considering Red Sea Coral Pro, Tropic Marin bio actif, and brightwell Neo Marine

I’ve used Bio-Sea for 6 years with no problems whatsoever. It mixes clean, dissolves well, and have never had an issue with calcium dips. A standard “case” is 3 15-20lb bags and makes 50-55 gallons per bag. Cost is around $70.00 box and I get it from a local pet store in Grand Rapids MI

Ive been using Red Sea pro for 2 years and wouldn't even think of switching, absolutely no reason to switch.

I too use RSCP and was curious as to what you keep your ALK at?
