[MadReefer]

Are there lot numbers to look for?

Yes usually a small white square looks like a price tag.

Was that after only 1 batch of salt mix?! Did you test it for salinity, calcium,mag, Alk.? If so were they all out of wack?

My tank does auto water changes so I mix 10 gallons of water and 5 cups of salt at a time. I didn’t test anything I just threw it all away. I wasn’t going to use it so didn’t care what any of the parameters were. One thing I do regret is not saving a zip lock bag full of it and sending it to the I/O dude who told me they don’t mess up their salt.

You know i just thought about it… i just bought a brand new salt from amazon reef crystals and did 250 gallons of water for my reef so it’s all new water and my alk was 6.1 …

I have a 1+ year old bucket 3/4 left. I was using it but switched over to Tropic Marin as it was less full just to get rid of the bucket. Now not sure what to do. I don't think the old bucket caused issues but who knows.

Ima prob switch over to aquaforest plus has 11 alk ratings to keep alk and calc higher or atleast more stabilize
