Totally understand if you're over it and don't wanna think about anymore, you lost a bucket full of coral and that sucks...

However, unless you started this thread for the intention bad mouthing IO and then walking away from this you really aren't doing this any good by staying out of it. Testing and finding a conclusion to this mishap is intriguing, I'd love to know what went wrong and what to look out for. Batch #? Where did you buy it? I assume you no longer work for a retailer that sells this salt?

If salt alone nuked one of my tanks I'd be ****ed, but I'd definitely want some answers, or was it user error...

User error unlikely given the op.

If it isn't the salt, it likely some outside factor.

Kids or some substance that accidentally got into the air or water or something that may never be known, unfortunately.
