I've mainly been using Reefers Best for the past 2 years and before that I used Reef Crystals.
 
I use IO for 2 reasons:

1.) Its reasonably priced considering I go through a 200g box per month.

2.) I prefer to buffer my make up water myself so I can tweak things if necessary.
 
I can tell you that, for me....Coralife is the most underrated salt on the market. It always mixes to a good level for me. I suppose that if you like to keep a very very high dKH level, then it may not be the best. I don't keep mine high, so the fact that it mixes to 9 or 10 dKH makes it perfect
 
Very very well. Still going throught the transition period with it but I have some very trustworthy people locally that have been demoing it for a while and they speak extremely high of it.
 
I have been using Red Sea Pro Coral since i set up my new 120g in July of 2009, seems to be fine. If i switched it would be Reef Crystals or Tropic Marine Pro Reef

I agree with you. Very consistent, mixes easy and pretty clean.
 
From what I understand you are only going to be able to get it at a local fish store. Seachems way of supporting the little guy,not sure if it is true or not but that is the rumors I hear.
