Mixing Salts

[BigBlue187]

I was woundering if it would be ok to mix Instant Ocean and Reef Crystals salt together. I just ran out of Reef Crystals and the only salt they sell around here is Instant Ocean.

Yeah you can, but just so you know, IO seems to have really low calcium (at least when I tested it), so you might want to test it and adjust it to match your tank levels.

Yes, they are the same salt, but reef crystals has increased Mg and Ca. Like Lee said just check your parameters and adjust accordingly.
