anthonywesty · Sep 30, 2017

Does anyone use this new salt? Or why liveaquaria changed from RC to this one.

Since petco bought them there is no telling what they will do, or why they do it. Thisbis the first heard of it.

They explained a lot about this at MACNA. YouTube it. I just bought the 53 gallon bag for 24.99 and they gave me a $25 gift certificate. Basically I got it for free. I'll mix it up and check it out

Most likely someone else's salt mix just rebranded for LA.

Just went to DFS to buy my usual instant ocean 200g box (spent several hundred $ the last year) to find it jacked up in price. they told me the MFR upped the price. then went to BRS who I love and they told me they're no longer allowed to sell it online. So something's up.

The actual packaging (bucket and box) is identical to Fritz. So are the parameters.

I really want to use Redsea, unfortunately I don't like the price. IO reef was my go to. Now I'm not liking that price. Just got my 53 gallon bag yesterday of Liveaaquaria salt, time will tell.
