I am with you Dana. I can drive to the Distributor and pick it up. I need a new salt.

The tank salts the balling salts?

The balling salts actually made pink (not purple ) corraline grow.
But also made a couple of dormant algaes grow. Dictoya being one of them. I also noted some of my zoanthids backs a bit muted and had more maroon colors rather than true reds.

I am curious about the full salt mix

And don't understand why they have not brought it to the states, where you can buy it online.

Thanks for your help on the FM forum

Bulk Reef Supply carries other Fauna products. I am sure they could provide the salt if they wanted.
I am just curious about results and maybe icp tests.

First off I've used IO most of my life and never had a mix kill my reef.
These are the latest results that I've seen and he left out TM Pro Reef this time. It's the mix that he uses and he caught a lot of flack the last time for testing it.

Thank you for the link and you are so lucky for not having a salt mix kill your reef. I have been an idiot since the mid 90's. I had Ron Shimek and Crystal Seas wipe out over 50% of my tank which I think was my old 110 doing a 5 gallon change. I then had very high ammomia in TM regular kill a ton of my acros a few years later. Unfortunately I am stricken again buy about a 25 to 35% slow kill I have finally determined to be the salt mix. They owe me money so I am not saying the name. Not many people use it.
I will read your link now.
