best salt by rayray

Comments: Owners at my frequented LFSs grudgingly told me they use this in their professional displays but sold the cheap crap because thats what hobbists and maintenance crews used - cheap sells. I bought a small box, used RODI H2O & it is amazing. I now add NOTHING to the salt, it dissolves in 10 minutes leaving no residue, and the colors of the SPS/LPS really showed after 2-3 water changes. I do weekly 10% changes and will use nothing else. I now only test for Ca+ & Alk. My expensive corals live & thrive in this stuff. Worth the cost! Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Comments: Dissolves before it hits the bottom of the bucket, just like the other tropic marin, and has tons of calcium and added compounds. Always known as the best salt ever. Worth the extra price. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Best Salt Period by Leonard Papagno

Experience Level: Intermediate

Posted on 4/13/2008 from GROVELAND, FL UNITED STATES

Comments: Without a doubt this salt is the hands down winner when it comes to synthetic sea salt. I originally bought this at a local Store in Orlando, Fl when I was picking up a coral. I had never seen it before or even heard of it and the price was three times higher than any other salt I had bought. I went ahead though and purchased some and I have not been disappointed since. The results have been nothing less than great. I use to make up water a week in advance in a large Rubbermaid can and after a week the diatoms covered ever in of the can and ruined the water. I don’t use RO like the majority of people in this hobby use so I always thought that was the reason. Plus my tank after a few days would start to bloom diatoms even with an abundance of snails on the glass. Since I bought Tropic Marin Pro I know longer have diatoms and I can go longer between water changes and use less salt per gallon than with any other mix. I mix it up 3 weeks in advance and the water is just as clear as the first day I mixed it. I will use no other mix ever period. A bonus also is my coralline algae have finally taken hold of my tank after 4 years of trying to get it to go. Great Product and it the long run you will save money with fewer changes. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Nice salt by Ryan Lynch

Comments: Well I have used Red Sea Coral Pro Salt and this salt. Red Sea salt was great dKh 10 Cal-420 1.021. The only reason I switched was because of the residue left over in my mixer after I mixed. Tropic-Marin has no residue after I mix and is very clean but only has a dKh of 7. I questioned them about this on there website and the answer I got was natural seawater is 7 and that is what there salt stays at. I personally like to be higher so I use a dKH additive with this salt. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Pro Reef salt is the BEST! by RAMAN

Experience Level: Expert

Posted on 2/22/2008 from FONTANA, CA UNITED STATES

Comments: I have owned saltwater tanks for over 15years now. The Marine Tropic Pro-Reef Salt is by far the best salt I have ever used. The only algae that it promotes are purple coralline algae. With other products I would grow purple coralline on the rocks and a green type of coralline on the glass. After switching to Marine Tropic Pro Reef, I have noticed the green type of coralline go away and now I only grow the purple coralline on the glass and rocks. Also, all of my coral is growing like crazy!! This salt is a little high in cost but well worth it. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Comments: This salt gives amazing colors to my SPS coral. I like that the dKH buffers at 7-8 and Calcium is around 420ppm. I'm never switching back to Red Sea Pro Coral after seeing great results with Tropic Marin Pro Reef! Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

The best I've used. by SJB

Comments: For a long time I relied on additives to keep my Calcium and Magnesium levels up. Then I discovered Tropic Marin Pro and I now use very little supplements to my water. I have two reef tanks, one 500 gallon, one 210 gallon. I do a 10 percent water change weekly on my tanks. I'm able to maintain my mag and cal at optimum levels this way and it costs much less than constantly adding additives or using reactors - and safer. Obviously I make my own water and this is absolutely the cleanest salt. Every other salt I've used has left deposits in my mixing tanks. Tropic Marin is always clean. WELL worth the extra $$. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Comments: Well we all know that Pro-Reef Tropic Marin is an AMAZING salt for your reef because of all the elements infused in the mix. Its really great that this 200 gallon mix is available from Marine Depot because its a great value compared to having multiple 32 Gallon boxes. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
