so I switched over to Aquaforest. I am impressed, now it's hard to find the 25kg boxes of salt! We seem to have cleaned out Amazon :P

Aquaforest now has a reliable Canadian distributor. J&L got their first shipment in last week and more is on the way. Other retailers have, or will have inventory soon. Check with your favorite LFS.

All I was trying to say is aquaforest sea salt is always in Stock. Most people using the aquaforest products are using there reef salt or probiotic salt. If you look at there product Guide the only thing aqua forest sea salt is recomended for Is a fish only tank. I was pointing this out because a uninformed person would possibly buy it not knowing it's intended for a fowler tank not a reef.

As for buying a pallets of salt I would try the local fish shop they got lots.

LOL I would have been one of those "uninformed" so thanks !! as I've used IO for years switched to Reef crystals and didn't really notice a difference, think I'll try the Aquaforest reef salt ( no SPS mostly softies Zoes etc) from J&L hopefully they'll have stock, it doesn't appear on their website, but the Phyto Mix does anyone tried that yet?

According to the Aquaforest website their Sea Salt is just fine for soft corals and even says so directly on the pail. http://aquaforest.eu/en/product/sea-salt/
