Salt...what up?

I've been looking around and researching salt. I used to use Instant Ocean. I see a few more brands are out there and found a site with REALLY good prices. Whats the consensus for salt brand these days.

Mark, we have a group buy for salt...the last one in March. HERE is the instruction thread that includes prices....were you can compare to what you're looking at now. You'll also find that the Hidden Reef in PA sells salt pretty close to at cost.

Thanks!...I keep my eye out for the next group buy.

F&S

-5.00 give or get
39.99

One caveat here, you will need to buy some fish food, or some other trinket to get to the $49 free shipping.


I bought two 300watt Jager heaters and a refractometer so shipping was free. BRS was out of stock and more expensive, even with the group buy. I also found a promo code for $10 off. I was impressed with their prices.

So looks like I'm an Instant Ocean guy again...:)
 
If you sign up for automatic delivery with F&S every 10th shipment is free. It was nice to know that my buckets of salt arrived the same time every month. The fedex guy didnt like it too much.
 
I like f&s they have good prices on most stuff (not a huge selection though) and you can't beat free shipping after $49. I did buy some t5 bulbs off of them and the free shipping counts towards that as well. And their customer service is awesome.
 
Yeah let's hope it doesn't rain on my neighbors living room downstairs at some point!

This is why I can't live above anyone. I have flooded my kitchen out so many times (walking away from the bucket as its filling with RODI) I had to buy a dehumidifier to prevent mold.
