I'm still using it . Just bought another bucket the other day actually. So far, demand for the levels is keeping up with supply and I'm liking how I don't have to dose lately. I am concerned about Iodide (Iodine?), however. Was dosing Iodine a good long while back. Then my colt coral virtually disintegrated. Tested tankwater Iodide. High. Did lots of water changes. No change. Tested changewater Iodide. High. This was well before I noticed higher than usual tank water Ca readings, however, so I'm not sure if it's related. An old Salifert Iodine test kit too. Getting a new one next week. Will test changewater for Iodide then. For shame, I know, continuing to use this salt without knowing for sure , but other than that Colt, everything is relatively happy.

Cheers,

Well FWIW, I would have kept on using mine as well if I hadn't noticed issues with my sps. I mean who doesn't want a salt that has kick *** Ca, Alk and Mg levels? (granted that second bucket was pretty high at 15dkH).

FWIW, update re: my last post.....

1). Iodide/Iodine wasn't a problem after all. My test kit had gone bad.
2). Supply levels began to overtake demand. Still using Kent, but I also use IO now too, to help level things off.
3). Have introduced another Colt. Thumbs up.

Cheers,
