I use Royal Nature. It doesn't seem to be very popular, not sure why but it works fine for me. I did test the Alk on a new batch which read out at 7 and the pail advertises 9.....People say 7 is fine but seems low...

The last bucket I purchased was H20cean, really happy with it.....I can't say it's totally because of the salt....but I have noticed a growth spurt since changing.
I'll be using it from now on

I use H2Ocean, mixes very clean and very quickly, as I do put new mixture in tank about 1 hour after mixing.
Have used Reefers Best, also very good salt but more money. I have also had trouble buying at times, thus the reason I switched to H2Ocean Reef Crystals is what I started with, and used for quite some time. The cheapest to buy, worked well... But I can say doesn't mix as cleanly as the others I stated. Always had some sludge and grime at bottom of pail after mixing.

i just switched over to aquavitro salinity because a friend recommended it and i saw it on sale at pices (**** ain't cheap). it stinks when its dry and takes a bit longer to dissolve but so far everything's responding nicely.
Love the lid because i always have moisture issues
