LPS keepers, what salt do you use?

Started with IO years ago. Added seachem products for calc and alk. I now use NSW I get from a university but I still use the seachem products. ;)
 
Oceanic here (we're a dying breed). I dose kalkwasser and Randy's alk recipe #1, both via peristaltic pump. My tank is LPS dominated but has several acros and other sps in it too.
 
We have used IO for years but are switching over to Oceanpure Pro. It's basically the same as TMP but much much cheaper!

For dosing we run CA reactors and Kalk reactors on both systems. I like the extra purification the kalk gives the topoff water since socal water is 400+ppm and even after DI it's 8 or so ppm

For dosing we use Salifert Strontium and add Zeo magnesium granules to the reactors =)
 
I'm fairly new to LPS (well, reefkeeping in general), but so far mine are growing quite nicely. I use IO, but I also dose with kalk and B-Ionic 2-part to keep the calcium around 400. I also add 60ml of ESV Magnesium about once a week. Remember that both magnesium and alkalinity are important to the calcification process, though I can never remember all the details of the interplay between these three elements.
 
I use Tropic Marin pro and dose daily A & B {alk and Ca}by Ocean's Blend, every third day Ocean's Blend magnesium.
CA 450
Alk 4.00
Mg 1350
Jen, I have'nt heard of Ocean pure Pro. Is it new..who makes it?
