This is not a bad salt, but over priced. The best salt I have used over the past year is Brightwells. Brightwells salt measures out as good, but mixes faster and better, never gets clumpy or hard and leaves no residue.

This salt is a really good product, as it mixes very well. The problem is, I had to guess at how much to add, as there are no guidelines at all as to how much salt per gallon of water to add. I figured it out for 35ppt and wrote it on the side of the box.

I have had Instant Ocean, cheap buy for $51.00/ 175 Gallons, I learned a lesson with swiching SG, algea broom and worst, lost some of my SPS. So I called Marine Depot for recommendations, I got advised from expert....switching to Tropic Marine Pro. I switched 30% water change from Istant Ocean to Tropic Marin...and resulted paid off. My SPS seems happier, so my advised to folks out there :" I don't try to save 40 bucks of salt when it costs you more than 200 buck of coral..."

By far the best salt we have used. Maintains most reef systems with little or no additional additives. @ 90.00 a bucket by far the most expensive, but for a reason, it's good salt.

This is the only salt that I will use. I had used a couple of different brand before, but Pro Reef gives me the best quality. They have the best trace elements, all my corals grows and are very happy living in this water.

I have been using Marin Pro in my mixed reef for about 10 months now, and I am very happy. My Ca, Alk, Mg, and pH all seem more stable after switching. Granted, I do not have SPS at this time.

I have used this salt in the past, but I started buying salt from my local pet store, just because it was cheaper. OOPS!!! I will never do that again. Wow the difference is obvious in my corals when I use Pro reef! I was using coral life and it is not even close! I think my fish are even more active. I stopped in to see an old frined and looked at their tank and it looked so good! I asked what they were adding to the tank to make it look so good and they said Nothing! Just using Tropic Marine Pro reef and changing 5% of the water every monday moring. I knew what my tank had been missing! If you are not sure just give it a try, you will not be let down!!! My kids are even noticing the differences.

I had several problems with BrightWell Aquatics and Instant Ocean. They both seemed to have excess pH swings and algae blooms. Running the lights for 4 hours a day, adding a phosphate reactor, changing the water 20% weekly... nothing could eliminate the algae. Finally I noticed a difference after the second 20% water change with Tropic Marine Pro Reef. Now I am actually keeping SPS successfully.
