![]() I too have had issues with IO salt. I called them and they told me to send me a sample and they sent me a new bucket of salt. This was in Jan 2012 and I was getting 17 for alk.
Recently, I noticed that my Mg was dropping and I tested a batch of new salt water. It was only 1200 so that was why it kept dropping every time I did a w/c. It was a newer bucket so I scooped out half of it and mixed it really thoroughly and next batch was 1300 so it does seemto make a difference to mix it up well. Just my experience anyways. Leanne |

![]() low alkalinity that could be caused by a water change would not wipe out your tank and kill your fish. Something else must have killed a fish, which created ammonia and then created a chain reaction and killed more fish, and corals.
If your alkalinity is 8 and you do a 20% water change with a salt that is 5kh, that will not affect your KH in your tank significantly. I had my kh at 5 before I started dosing at some point and that did not kill anything in my tank. Quote:
