After seeing many photo's of some of your beautiful LPS corals (some of you have amazing frogspawns) what brand of Salt do you all use?
I have had 2 frogspawns in the past and unfortunately they died and I think it was down to low calcium as all other tests came out fine.
I use Instant Ocean and was wondering if many of you all do aswell as it is a popular salt. Let me know as I will be getting some new LPS corals in the upcoming months and want to be 100% successful with them this time around :)
 
Reef crystals for me, although considering changing as not getting good Mg levels from it just now
 
Oceanic, with Kent buffer and Calcium, plus Kent Coral Vite and Reef Essentials. The frogspawn in particular is thriving.
 
Going back to Instant Ocean from Reef Crystals.

Went to RC to reduce the amount of dosing needed and have run into the need to dose MG as well. I find IO easier to mix so if I still have to dose anyway, I'll save some $ on the initial salt purchase and some time on mixing.
 
Good to see many use IO and have positive results from the LPS corals. What is the minimum calcium level for them?
Can't wait to add another frogspawn and torch - just want them to thrive this time!
