I have a bucket of Oceanic Salt 200g mix for $40 NEW.

Also have another bucket that has been open.....however it has more salt than a 200g mix normally has - I added about 2/5 of salt to it from a Tropic Marin bucket.

Asking $45

KathyC - Thanks, I found a petland 4 minutes away from me, and bought a bag of salt!

inline6 - I am still interested in a bucket but I was in a rush and had to get a bag quickly - I have been using Instant Ocean, do you use Oceanic salt? would you recommend it? Thanks.

Ajaya,

I have heard one person's account of what happened when he mixed these exact 2 brands of salt , he had an algae bloom. Keep in mind this was one account. I never had an issue, however I went from Coralife salt to Oceanic. BTW Oceanic is suppose to have a elevated level of calcium.

True, Oceanic measured at 450ppm Calcium on my last batch.

Thanks inline6 (sorry for the late response), but I think i will err on the side of safety and stick with what has been working (IO).
