Does anyone want to trade an unopened Red Sea coral pro 55 gal mix for a mix with lower kh values?

If the only thing about the salt mix is that the kh is high. you can use muriatic acid to lower the kh. I do this with IO.
You can use this link to see what Randy says is the correct amount http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1530419, I add 5ml per 20gal of new salt mix and it drops my kh from around 12.5 to 8.0, which is where i try to keep the tank.
The only "trick" per say is that you need to air rate the water afterwards, you can see that when you add the acid the ph drops way down. So you could check the ph before and then add the acid then air-rate till it returns to normal. Then your ready.
