Whatcaneyedo, this is very good information, this is what I'm looking for. If you can, just vote for the salt you use the most of.
Thanks,

Reefer's Best for my Reef tank.
IO for my FOWLR. But my FOWLR isn't really a FOWLR anymore. I have some Shrooms, Palys and LPS in there. I also run ZeoVit on both tanks. Because of these factors, I'm likely going to go with just Reefer's Best once the IO is used up. Long story, short....Reefer's Best.

Instant Ocean
Because it is inexpensive and has high alkalinity but low Magnesium and Calcium. I add a Magnesium Chloride and Magnesium Sulfate mix to bring the Magnesium up to (1300 - 1400). I also add Calcium Chloride to bring the Calcium up to (400 - 450). Lately I have been doing water changes of 60G on a 525G system once every 6 weeks. Tom R

I am now using Reefer's Best because I can get it from J&L. Mixes okay, seems to create a film on top of the mix no matter what I do to try and mix it properly. I find I need to suppliment with this salt.
I prefer to use Marine Environment or Biosea, but I have to ship it in from Edmonton and mixing the 2 part Marine Environment gets to be tough with my tanks being as small as they are. Both of these mixed really well and I didn't find much if any need to suppliment. Started with IO but it left the mixing bucket filthy and never mixed well.

It would aid this poll if you can please add the additional brands for me and “other” for any salt brand that may be over looked. In addition, thank you for the welcome. Thank you for your assistance.
