OK Zeo Masters I'm switching salt and was wondering should I use KZ's or H2Ocean? Any opinions either way would be appreciated.
Thanks

I have been rotating water changes between KZ's and Seachem Reefsalt. The reason I still do some water changes using Seachem Reefsalt is because it is very high in potassium. High enough that I have stopped dosing K-Balance because my potassium levels stay in the 380's and a bucket of Seachem Reefsalt is about the same price as a 500ml bottle of K-Balance but lasts 4 times as long.

I've tried other addatives but these are the standards

Have your dosing amounts dropped over the years? Or at least in the first year?

I notice some of your amounts are lower than mine but your tank is bigger. I think its because the further you go into ZEO, the less you need. Is this true?

Yes Over time you will lower the dosage of almost every additive.
