Seachem reef salt

[Ruth]

Well I said I would post results of a newly mixed up batch so here they are:

SG - 1.026
Temp. - 79 degrees
Mixed and heated for 48 hrs - I usually only do 24hrs. but I was not feeling well last night so did not do my test and water change

Alk/hardness - 9.6 DKH
Calcium - 420
Mg. - 1320

Not too bad - did not test of Phosphate as I am still waiting for some cleaning solution for my Hanna and the Salifert tests are notoriously inaccurate.

How does it compare to other salts, do you know?

I posted the results I got when I tested the Tropic Marin Pro salt in another thread. Results are fairly similar - calcium a bit lower and DKH a bit higher. I am just switching over to these salts so will have to see how things do long term. I have done 2 water changes (15%) in each of my large tanks now. In the tank I am running zeovit in I am using the Seachem and for all my other systems I am using the Tropic Marin.
