Salt mix?

[jcnkt_ellis]

I'm moving away from Instant Ocean once my bucket is up, it's not buffered enough to raise my RO/DI water's ph above 8.1~8.2 and I want to supplement as little as possible...

wow never heard of cyano from a salt....bad water yes but not a salt. but ive read cyano feeds of a acid in the tank so maybe things swung around in your system cause the mix.

That's what I'm thinking. The only variable was the salt. That's the only reason I say that. All in all, reef crystal has their boxes at $45. Can't beat that unless you go IO.
