H2Ocean Pro+ is a new pro formula aquarium salt - produced by a solar evaporative process which produces a totally natural base salt where all of the main and trace elements are in complete balance as nature intended.
The pure natural salt is then specially enhanced for aquarium use by elevating specific elements that over time become depleted, such as calcium and magnesium which are used by corals and coralline algae for growth.
Free from Nitrate and Phosphate.
CHEMISTRY
The formulation for H2Ocean+ salt has been developed by D-D following many months of testing and evaluation. The salt is designed to dissolve quickly and easily and to have a specific chemistry which in our opinion is the optimum formulation to maintain a healthy reef and allow regular water changes whilst maintaining a natural balance.
Calcium and Magnesium levels are boosted to replace that used up through coral growth within the aquarium whereas chloride levels are slightly lowered to allow post additions of calcium and magnesium chloride with a minimized affect on the chloride balance.
MAGNESIUM PRO PLUS FORMULA
Many salts concentrate on boosting calcium levels and ignore magnesium levels. Maintenance of the correct magnesium concentration is equally important in a reef aquarium and will make it much easier to maintain stable calcium, pH and alkalinity.
RO WATERH2Ocean Pro+ salt is recommended for use with Reverse Osmosis water or soft water with a calcium level lower than 30 mg/l. As the calcium level in H2Ocean+ is already enhanced to 440 mg/l then mixing with hard tap water which contains additional calcium may raise the concentration above normal recommended levels and cause the calcium to precipitate out of solution.
RO water removes undesirable ions like phosphate and nitrate from your tap water which otherwise would contribute to nuisance algae in your aquarium.

Great Salt Mix
Pros: Best all around mix that I've ever used and keeps my Cal Rector's parameters inline duuring water changes
Cons: You can only buy from MD and the buckets do crack open during shipping
After long research and trying to find a Mix that Spits the Red Sea Blue Bucket and Black Bucket in alk, This is a no brainier find.
At .35 you can expect the alk to come in at 9 to 9.3 dkh.
Cal - 420 to 430 and mag to about 1380 to 1400.
I also would like the thank Marine Depot for their sponsorship on Reef 2 Reef.
As the instructions clearly state / this is a mix that you really need to roll before use.
The buckets do crack during shipping and it would be best if they were shipped inside boxes.
Regards, GoVols

Like the salt, hate the delivery
Pros: The Salt mix works very well
Cons: Every time I order, the bucket is cracked, the internal bag is torn, I get a box leaking salt.
The Salt has worked out very well for our reef tanks.

GREAT STUFF EVER!
I have used many salts and this is one of the best. This salt seems to work for my tanks. There is no "junk" at the bottom of the mixing tank after I've aerated the new water for a couple of days.

Not that great
Pros: None
Cons: Not true to the label when mixed
I bought this salt a while back I used it on my new system, once I mixed it to specs checked my lvls they where all low. Mybe it was a bad batch who knows. I went back to my old salt. It would have been fine for a fish only specs but not for reef specs

Best Salt
Pros: Great for SPS
Cons: Expensive
In my opinion this is the best salt for SPS. I used it for a few years, then switched to another brand because of the cost. After just a few months I saw all my SPS suffer. I am quite sure it was the salt. I switched back and everything is looking great again. Marinedepot is one of the only places I can find this salt.

CYANO/HAIR ALGAE
Pros: It dissolves fast?
Cons: ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING
Setting up a new tank and decided to splurge on this more expensive salt mix... before adding anything alive there was cyano bacteria and hair algae covering nearly everything. I struggled with it for a few months reducing lighting and minimizing nutrients to the tank to the point of fish starving to death. Still can't get rid of nasty brown slime covering everything in my tank including corals that start receeding as soon as I put them in. Absolutely the worst decision I have ever made getting this salt! I am having to completely start over. I will be draining my system and sanitizing everything (probably have to burn my rock and sand) To get rid of this garbage. DO NOT BUY THIS SALT!!!

Great Salt
Pros: Mixes clear and without residue, Alk, Calcium and Mag levels perfect for mixed and SPS tanks.
Cons: Not many online vendors or my LFS carries this brand
This salt mixes clear with no residue. It also tests very closely to the listed ranges for alk, calcium, mag, etc. I had switched from another brand that had very high alk in the 11-12 range and I much prefer this salt at 8-9 alk. Much less of a spike when I do 20% water changes.
