careful.
you might get sued.

I have been using it for a bit now and really like it myself. I have tested the Mg, calcium, alk, nitrate, K+, ect. a few times now and been very pleased with the results.

Its funny though because when I first got the salt, I thought, this is the exact same bucket I used to get the Red Sea Stuff in (same handle). Then I opened it and was like, wow, this is the exact same bag and little "tie" thingy used to close the Red Sea bags. Then I opened it and though, hmmmm...it smalls exactly the same (slightly different from other salts, IMO). It also takes longer to mix like the Red Sea stuff does.

So I wouldn't at all be surprised if at the very least it is in fact made at the same plant or actually just the same stuff. Both are real sea salt...

OK People who are using it and clam to have tested it. Can we see some numbers!

+10

now any body on this forums tests match up?
details?

Here is what I got most recently in my book about the salt:

12/12/08

PH 8.37 (Probe)
Alk 9 dkh (Elos) (This worried me since I am running ZEO)
Ca 420 (Salifert)
Mg 1280 (Elos) (Would be nice a bit higher I guess)
K+ 400 ish (ZEO) (I have a hard time with this test but it was high)
Nitrate None that I could test but my test kits are not great in the low range.

01/30/09

PH 8.4 (Probe which was calibrated on 12/26/08)
Alk 9.5 (Elos)
Ca 480 (Elos)
Mg 1300 (Elos)
K+ 380 (ZEO)

Did not test nitrate


Hope this helps. I can go back through my "test records" for more if you want. I tested it a few more times back when I started using the salt but I was also using less reliable test kits back then too, so figure the results may not be useful.

All results are based on H2O salt mixed to 1.026 with 0 TDS RO/DI water and heated to 78-80 degrees.

Thanks Justin. numbers look good. But I agree ALK maybe high for Zeo

I got a lower Mg.

The high Alk seems to be consistent with my results too though. I think this is what I worry about being a ZEO user. But so far once I do my water change, my tanks ALK is still only around 8 (in the safe range) and drops from there over a few days.

I dose two part for ALK and Ca and after a water change, do not dose either for a few days.

Actually I am finding that with my tank being relatively young still (coral wise) that the weekly water changes take care of most of the ALK needs and about half the Ca needs.

NP.

I am doing a water change today and will test the salt again.
