Can you tell me where I can get it for $35?
Rainbow Pet in Arleta (San Fernando Valley). Also, Miguel will sell you Reef Crystals 200g box for $45. Both come in a box with 4 packets of 50g mix each - very convenient.
BTW He also sells 200g TMP for $70 cash.

Creatures from the Sea's in Reseda, 200g IO $35 when he has it in stock.
BTW Andrew sold me the 120g bucket of AquaVitro's "Salinity" for $30 cash. Another terrific salt sold only in LFSs.
Also, he will get you the regular Tropic Marin 300g sac for $70.

Dude, you crack me up... you spend $4000+ on an LED fixture but are cheaping out on salt...

IO equally as good as I see so far. I did not buffer a thing and my parameters are exactly where I want them.

I used TMP for 4.5 months it takes way too much testing. I went through a lot of alk tests. The alk and calcium issues stink. Pro?????? at 6.5 alk mixed at 1.025. No Gracias!!!!

I switched out of tmp because Im being cheap, and have been seeing others attain nice results with IO and (Gfo, carbon, pellets).

Now if it was the same price Hmmmmmmmmmm well if it came with test kits then okay.

IO happy buyer:)

I'm wondering for the price since I didn't see any lowest price around in Orange County.

A lot of "cash" deals makes me think that any of us that don't have the "in" you have would be paying a lot more, so not a fair assessment to put these prices out, plus we are in OC and nobody locally has an advertised price of IO that cheap that I can find.
I did find Coralife 150g bucket for $35 though...

"Jul 19 - Instant Ocean Aquarium Sea Salt 200 Gallon Mix - $30 (San Fernando Valley) general pic"


Well...he asked where I know of that low price, not where it is conventient for he and you OC guys to shop.

I have no financial connection to this store, I've just been shopping there for 4years.

Its just the nature of retail that "Cash is King" because cash means 2-5%credit card fees aren't deducted, and also there is room for creative bookkeeping. Im not suggesting any business not pay taxes, but we all know how things go.
