My question for those advanced reefer with sps dominated tanks is it worth the extra money to use a "better" salt?
I know Myka's feed back has been salt is salt is salt is salt, but I am really curious if anyone else out there has seen a difference.
I am in no way a pro, and I will admit that I am having some SPS issues with death and colorization... I switched to Reefers Best to see if it helps, been running for approx 4 months. Nothing really improving, as of yet. so I can't honestly say the salt change is helping me.

I have 1.5 boxes of RB and 2 more on order with my LFS, if I don't see really any changes after these boxes, I might think about going back to Reef Crystals.
