I used it, noticed no difference. Its in my bin of used only once products

And this part always had me stumped "Regeneration is accomplished with plain table salt"

Since our tanks are salt water you'd think it was constantly regenerating. Unless they need iodized salt or something.

Never used it,but my rule of thumb is,if its so easy that its too good to be true,then it probably is.

I thought the same thing Chad. It sounded interesting but the regenerating in salt water was the red flag for me.

Thanks for sharing your experience. Much appreciated.
