Agreed. Same for me.

+1 For Me...

I personally use H2Ocean and find it has been pretty consistent for levels. I usually test every 2nd batch of WC water I make up to check, however my tank is SPS dominant.

For a LPS/Softy tank, I think your best bang for the buck would be Reef Crystals.

I've been using IO and dosing Ca and Mg... I have never seen any sludge in the bottom of my bucket. I don't have SPS though, only softies and LPS.

I've been using IO and dosing Ca and Mg... For the last 10 years.

Thanks guys and gals. I'll check some of those out.

No, back in the day I might have done the additives thing, but I don't even own any test kits anymore.
