Aqua Clear 110 power filter as its called now. Used to be the 500. Its my main filter on the back of the cube, beside my Deltec skimmer. Has a nice up flow of around 500gph through the filter.

Figured the bagged ultra lith in there would not be much different than in a reactor.

When Claude suggested Mike stop using IO salt and switch to Seachems RC for instance, is that just because of the lower magnesium & calcium levels in the IO mix or other reasons.

I add mag. & calcium to my fresh water before adding the salt to bring it up to proper levels. I have inquired about switching to Reef Chrystals for no other reason that if I,m going to do this, I wish to follow all the instructions. However, it seems to be not the easiest salt to find, as compared with others.

Is their a problem with my regime?
I know he only suggested RC & Tunze, {heaven knows where one buys that} but what about others such as Tropic Marin Pro, or several of the other better mixes out there?
Thanks

RC have a very stable level of minerals and nutrients without having a detectable level PO4

Fauna have had the best success using this salt.

So as per our discussion, in regards to a shallow aragonite sand bed, and without getting into sand beds versus no sand beds, would the UltraLith system not be designed for bare bottomed sps tanks also?
