Anyone use Red Sea Coral Pro Salt?

Anybody use the above? I saw it for 29.99 for a 175 bucket. It is supposed to be high in calicum / alk/ magnesium.

Wondering how well it mixes and how true it is to what the buckets states.

Thanks

I was given a bucket to try.
I mix 50g at a time and it mixed to clear in < 1 hour. Alk was around 7.5, CA was 460 and Mg was on the low side at 1150.
Mixed at 1.025 and I never measure temp since the container is in the fishroom with AC.

It seems to be an OK salt and the Mg level could be raised cheaply enough with Epsom Salts. I didn't need to since I've been using Oceanic for some time and my Mg is always high anyway.

I'm considering a combination of it Red Sea and Oceanic which should give me the levels I desire in my system. When I do a 50-50 mix of IO and Oceanic I have to mix in different containers or it takes a couple of days to clear.
