I just checked . . . mine doesn't have a sticker on the lid.

Either it fell off before I got it . . . or I'll find it stuck someplace strange within a three-year-old's line of sight (kids!).

Yep kids and stickers... You can make a five year old do anything with a couple of Spiderman stickers.

So sorry man I can only imagine... If you talk to instant ocean about this in the future to try and get some compensation; just remember you catch more flies with honey. Don't flip, stay calm tell them what happened and how devastating it is to you and I bet they will help any way they can.

@daniella3D didn't you read this whole thread? There are other cases of this exact same scenario, it IS happening to other people, not just J.

IMO, the problem is that if the batch was bad, there should be thousands of people with the same problem.
The numbers of people with the problem are statistically insignificant when dealing with the size of a batch mix.
It's too easy for someone to blame a batch of salt and then others having problems jump on the band wagon and feel the salt is the cause of their problems also.
Can you find even a hundred people who have a problem that they are blaming this batch of salt on?

Just like to add a BIG thank you to Concept Aquatics for the good deal on salt. I will be doing a major water change asap.

Sorry,I made a mistake on the batch number. I just looked at some old buckets and mattjoly85 you are correct. Can we please verify where Instant Ocean places the batch numbers? The only sticker on the bucket is on the lid which reads 12128. Correct me if I am wrong but I assume that is the batch number?
Levi,
Yes,I still have the whole 160 bucket. I only mixed up 6 gallons from it.(my tank is only 25 gal)
