Well, I have a ton of inverts I'd hate to lose (and can't get out of the tank). Pom pom crabs, a shitload of sexy shrimp, acro crabs, pistol paired with a yasha, etc. So treating the whole tank is kind of not going to happen. 
Don't want to wipe out my pods either because of the mandarin. I don't have anything too high end that redbugs like so we'll see how it goes.

Right on. Do you change a lot of water at a time? I just use regular IO but only change about 10 to 15 percent. Alk at 9 or so lately but I need to check the alk of IO. If I remember right its 9.5 to 10.
Just thinking if you do large water changes it might stress your corals if the parameters are far off using another salt.

I got great results with TMP also. Its like the classic old school snobby (premium) salt because of its price. I did the math and it cost 2x as much for me to do WCs, or $11 instead of $6 (IO) per WC. I considered either cheap compared to all the livestock & equip that cost $$$, that died or broke down.
Regarding the Best Salt, i concluded that all salts were very different from NSW. Batches of the same brand varied in quality. People got good results from every salt out there. If a new salt came out with great bucket art I had to try it. Especially if it had the word "pro" in it because it made me feel like a pro, just like my tooth paste (pro health) & camera (goPro).

I do double the water changes at half the price with IO and my tank has never looked better(12 gallons per day on 600 gallons). I will be showing it off at the SCMAS Christmas party in a few weeks for those of you who are attending. I tried all the expensive salts and none made that much of a difference and were as consistent as IO.
