I've checked online but it's way overpriced. Amazon has it at an outrageous price. Almost double, insane.

Thanks guys. As soon as this batch of IO is finished, I am going to AquaVitro.

Good luck, I've heard that it settles though so when you buy it transfer it to another bucket or stir it very good. I've read online of a bunch of people having problems from not stirring it. The guys at Maximum Reefs told me that when I picked it up. So far so good. I like it.

Thanks for the info bro, I will keep you posted.

I am blown away with this article! Red Sea Coral Pro seems to be the salt to get based on these findings.

 

[reefer4eva]

High in nitrates and phosphates though..I'm still sticking with coralife
Are you even seeing the comparisons?red sea wouldn't be my first choice.

 

[LowezAkar24]

What would be your first and second choice judging from the article? I do not see Aquavitro represented there either.

Tropic Marin would be my first choice.

As this is an old analysis and aquavito wasn't even around...I used almost every brand of salt out there..I always come back to using coralife just for the simple fact that every batch made is always consistent with all parameters and low in phosphates,nitrite and nitrates..every time I used instant ocean I always had algae growing everywhere..mostly on the high flow areas on the glass.and by no means am I trying to convince others...this is just my research and opinion.as far as the facts going by the analysis they speak for themselves

yeah but who's analysis? I cannot follow the link on my phone but I'm just saying was this done by a university or a marine biologist of some sort or is it just a competitors "findings"

If I use fake seawater, I use whatever is on sale. Never noticed any differences and neither have my fish or corals.

I use Red Coral Sea Pro. Good luck so far.

Thanks a lot! not very pleased with instant ocean for similar reasons.
