Good deal on salt.

This is a litte off subject but.... Right now if you buy a 200 gallon bucket of reef crystals you get a free minijet 404 pump inside. Great for mixing your salt or make a holding tank for your octo food. Heck you could even use this to start a mantis tank. Oopps did I say mantis in the ceph forum I highly recomend the reef crystals. I have had the best results keeping keeping cephs with it. 200 gallons worth will get you through a lot of water changes and your ceph will love you.

unfortunatly I already have a minijet 404 so that cant be an excuse for spending all my money on 200 gallons of salt. I still have a few bags of corallife salt. I hope you have not heard anything bad about this brand? On the bucket it says it is microprocessed to insure optimal amounts of calcium and magnesium

There may be different brands of salt that work fine. Different species react to different brands of salt.I have not tried all brands. Tropic Marin is said to be a great salt. I think Colin uses it.
I almost learned a hard lesson a few months ago going to cheaper salt.I learned that the quality of water I make is the most important thing. So now I don't skimp. It could have been a bad batch of salt. My whole story about what happend is in a back post in this forum some where. The moral of my story was if you have some thing that works don't change.
For the 59 dollars I spent to have 200 gallons of salt deliverd and a free pump, it is a good deal to me.

Chris,

I use Tropic Marin for my tank. It is pharmaceutical grade salt and has worked out very well for me.
