Salt Suggestions

I use Oceanic too.

Mixes fast and is clear in min.

Add buffer.

If you want some of my water let me know and I can I can give you 30 Gal or so.

that if ofcourse just for future reference. For the start up though, i would definately go with the aged water from Dozer- which i am sure you will.

What I have learned over the years. KEEP doing what works! Especially since starting up with reefing. Fish only is more forgiving IMO. Consistency is the key as well as patience. I used oceanic before and ended going back to IO. My two cents.

[pickle311]

so what kind of buffer are you guys adding to Oceanic?

[StephenA]

DIY backing/washing soda aka Kents Superbuffer.

I would be happy to give you some used water too guys.

I'm using Kent's superbuffer mainly because I was too lazy to do it myself at the time so I just bought the name brand stuff. But it's very simple ingredients that seem to be tailor made to going DIY.

What do you guys think about Coralife salt?

I would be happy to give you some used water too guys.

Thank you, Mike...from the things that we've discussed with Tim and a few others, it sounds as if this will really help our tank cycle quicker

I was using Instand Ocean and Oceanic mixed together. It gives me a good balance. I am thinking of trying oceanic with buffer. I woul also like some input on the red sea salt.
