If you can wait till the 26th and 27th, Partners in Roundrock is going to have a pretty substantial sale, I was told that IO would be like $29.**/160 gallon bucket, along with many other specials like 25% off livestock and more, Id call for exact details...

I stopped by there Wednesday. The buckets are $53.99 I think and they will be 20% off for the sale. I was planning on stopping to get 1 or 2 but wanted to make sure there wasn't a better price out there first.
Thanks

River City has 200 Oceanic for $45, better deal and some say better salt. I just switched to it myself and I like it over Red Sea and IO. JMO

Oceanic is a better salt.

We currently use IO...
Stephen - is there any difference in the Ca levels between Oceanic and IO?

I was considering the Oceanic a while back. I've read that the levels are much closer to natural sea water. But after reading all of the alge problems people were having on reef central, it kind of scared me away until the get that problem under control. Anyone here had any of those problems with Oceanic salt?

We have IO at River City for $39.99 everyday and all MASST members get 15% OFF which brings it down to $33.99 + tax. We also have the oceanic 200 mix on special this month for $45.00 but no further discount.
