Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Nowadays though the mixes are much better and most dissolve well enough in water. When i mix in a brut trash bucket and use a powerhead to mix it clears in good time.

Don't hesitate, if you have trouble with your system, it isn't the reef crystals. Instant ocean has everything i need in it, so i don't even bother with reactors and dosers. This brand is my go to for mixing saltwater for marine aquariums.



Cons

This salt is dangerous for a reef tank. It makes accurate measuring and mixing way more time consuming and difficult than it needs to be.

The salt in the four plastic bags, within the cardboard box, is as hard as a rock. Appears moisture got into the plastic bags causing the salt to solidify!

Some of the products sold on amazon at such a low cost are due to * like this (discounted because it does not conform to specs). Do not let the low price fool you.

Shipping


Love the sault but the bucket broke in shipping and about 10lbs of the sault was lost

Competitiveness


Better to buy this salt and gfo or a doser for alk than buy the pricey salt that’s like triple a year in cost


Just use a prefilter from pale to tank and ignore the gunk which to be honest ive never seen it but others have complained about
