best salt?

[WRASSER]

So many buckets of salt to chose from, so little time... ... in your opinion, which salt is best for the tank?

Oh boy, this is a hotly debated topic I've gone back to Instant Ocean. It's the one that has worked for me for 20+ years and the one I think I'm going to stick to from here on out. I've had mixed results with other salts, though it's very hard for me to determine whether they were the fault of the salt mix or something else.

I've used 3 different brands over 9 years - IO, reef crystals, and Tropic Marin. I have to say that tropic marin is by far my favorite and the one I've had the best results with

In the new nano I switched my 20+ year habit from IO to the reef crystals, and I really like the results I'm getting 8)
