Either salt is fine then as they both have close to natural sea water levels in terms of alkalinity. You are already low nutrient so not really necessary to change what you are doing otherwise, unless you are like me and always like to fiddle and change things. For carbon dosing methods, i've done zeo, vodka, vinegar, biopellets, all in one biopellets and now aquaforest which I am happiest with.

In terms of Dino's that's a whole different story and I've never had them so I cant really offer much advice. Although I do know people that have had success with a lights out period and hydrogen peroxide dosing (don't know if its the safest method). I'm not sure but the beneficial bacteria from the aquaforest probiotic salt might help to out compete the dino, but probably no where near enough to do so on its own. Again this is something you might want to research specifically.

But for lowering alk you could use either salt as both are roughly the same parameters.
