Going to do a water change tomorrow

 

[sabazerehi]

I've been using reef crystals for over a year and have been generally happy with it. no major issues to report luckily

 

[Aquafrags]

completed the 50 gallon water change, everything looks good so far

much better specs than my bucket of aquavitro

I switched back to RC after using several other brands. Parameters are consistent and within the range I prefer specifically higher alk. I used it for about 4 years in a sps dominant tank and had great growth.

What u guys think about D&D H2O
White one is better DD or RC

 

[Aquafrags]

i used D&D good parameters, but the residue left in the container just did not seem right

so far reef crystals, no residue, and params are good

hopefully it helps with all the calcium precipitation i was getting from aquavitro (Seachem)

couldnt get my calcium above 350, now its 410 (VERY NICE)

Cool
Thanx

Are you sure the parameter is correct? I was told it's high alk.

Its a really good salt, but a little harder to find than IO or TMP.

for those that live in oc, tom sells both rc and io as well as others. just another advantage of living in the lfs mecca.

Marine Depot is selling both of them! They can match the price. They will have 15% of at the Sidewalk Sale tomorrow!

Do they have salt too? I thought it was just used equipment?

I saw the post from Greg at RC for D&D and TM salt but they might have for Reef Crystal! check it out tomorrow.
" I am told that they will make salt available from Tropic Marin and D-D H2Ocean at the event. They will be priced at 15% off. Thanks for speaking up guys!"

Nope, not even going, just wanted to clarify. Clean buckets is the BEST!!!

 

[Skidazl]

Oh yeah, and FWIW, Tom will match MD's prices, you just gotta ask...

I went to Pets mart and got the individual bag, Reef Crystals(1 mile away from me) so I use the whole package of salt, so I do not get the variations in the params if you do not use a whole bucket. Work for me has been so crazy, I need to simplify eveything these days. It gives me time to drive 100 miles for frags!!!
