I'm too cheap for that. If I'm going to "get rid" of some salt, I may as well get rid of it into the tank.

Honestly though, other than higher alk, I find no real difference now that I'm using IO again. Other than lower Ca, but that's easy enough to fix.

So what you're saying is that there's no similarities.

No kidding!!! I use muriatic acid to lower the alkalinity in H2Ocean before using it, but I have to mix a few hours for pH to rise back up.
