    WOW! Sounds like someone FINALLY caught on? I'd heard they bought an entire warehouse of salt.

    I just finished my first bucket of the four I bought before the increase. Now, I wish I had four more.

    petsolutions.com had a sale on it recently...may still be on sale. Shipping isn't bad...they don't charge for the extra weight anymore. They have decent prices on other items as well and when I order on a monday I always get it by Friday. I've bought dry goods from them for years and have never had a problem. Everything from reptile, dog and fish supplies.

    I just looked there: IO @ 38, RC @ 41 & Red Sea @ 42 shipping does not look bad as long as you buy a lot.

    Instant Ocean certainly isn't the best salt out there, not even close. Here's a link to a salt study done by one of the local enthusiasts (who happens to be a chemist) back in Michigan if you're interested.

    We ended up buying a bucket of Coralife for $37...$41 and some change with tax from Texas Tropical. We didn't have time to go to Aquarium Designs
