+dapettit Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Does anybody know who carries this salt mix locally? Or does anyone have a 32 gallon box they would like to sell. I want to run some tests. TIA, Dave- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medi Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 I know Kingfish and RCA carry it in the 5 gallon jugs. How much do you need to mix up? I am currently using that salt and would be willing to spare some. But....you have share the results of whatever test you run. You have me curious now.

fishypets Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 I get mine from Kingfish. Paramaters are KH 7.5 CA 390 MG 1200 Since I started using this salt I no longer dose a carbon source and my PO4 is always 0.00 according to my hanna checker.

mooric Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 I read that results can very between batches of SW from the same bucket of salt for many brands since the minerals are not necessarily evenly distributed within the container. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

offroadodge Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 there are bad things with every salt out there, Its all in what works 4 u. Some things(salt,additives,etc) work for some ppl and not 4 others. I think if u know ur takn then u know what needs to happen to make things work for u.
