I must say I am impressed with the way this salt mixes. It disolves faster than any other brand I've tried and doesn't go cloudy like the Seachem (Aqauvitro Salinity) always did when I used it. It mixes at about the same rate as Reefers Best but as I said disolves quicker. I like it!

You're right, that salt is the best I ever tried.

The bucket will actually make up 180 gallons worth of salt water at 1.025

I haven't tried it yet & I don't have a scale for the mix ratio they recommend, I wonder if it's a similar amount to reef crystals . Which I use just under 1/2 cup per gallon to get 1.026. Has anyone mixed it up by the cup yet? Thanks.

I mixed it the same as Reefers Best which is roughly a heaping cup per 2.5 gallons. Whenever I try a new salt it takes some trial & error the first water change. I would recommend mixing it the same as you normally do with your old salt and then check your salinity and add extra salt or extra water depending on the outcome.

I have more of the premium salt available.

It takes exactly 2 & 2/3 cups to make 5 gallons @ 1.026. Done twice and happy with the paras of the mix. Thanks again Greg.
