I think it's called Kent.....
Oh ya bandwagon jumper next thing you know you'll be using bio assy

I'll get 1/2 a cup from you (or what ever it is to make 1 gal) and test it.. I recall none of the companies were setting Mg levels right as it is one of the more expensive ingredients, but a couple companies have changed there formula sense then including IO. so I should do a side by side comparison between the two.

Oh, I thought maybe we got some new salt study result or something showing Kent to be the best salt.

Sorry to hear about your tank.

Just bought a bucket of Kent. How much salt to water ratio? I doesn't mention what ratio to mix on the bucket. IO was 1/2 cup per gal. I'm guessing it would be the same?

Hang in there. Cheers

Default and the Reef Gods weep.....

Wow!
When I talked to Steve today , he told me he had some losses, but I had no idea!
So calling ALL REEFERS, that have recieved frags and/or technical advice from our Lighting Guru....I know there is a LOT!, I'm one tooo.......
... especially those who have Steves frags, IT'S PAYBACK TIME!
In all seriousness, we would all lose if Steve went to freshwater, so lets help and repay his generosity.
Drop him a line with what you have and show him there is hope.
My tank is nothing like Steves and my "Great Death" this summer, almost had me crying-like-a-schoolgirl...TOUGH!
FWIW MHO
Chin-up catch'ya later

PS Brad only bought Kent 'cause it was cheap when we were at J&L
