That's some calcium content!

A good all round salt is Instant Ocean, has a good balance of elements
and is used by thousands of reef keepers all over the world. Red sea
salt has had some bad reviews and is not regarded as one of the best.

cheers,

Hi again all,

I was wondering if you can tell me what your salt mix parameters are
BEFORE you add it to your tank? ie. Water tests done on made up water.

I've got to change my salt mix as I've been using Coralife and the Ca is
900, using R/O water although the tank reading is between 560 and 600.
Also the KH is 8 leaving my tank on 5. No good!

I have no petshops near here so I can peruse what they have so will need
to buy online here in Oz. I've so far found this

but have never heard of either of these mixes and the Age of Aquariums
one sounds a bit dodgy.

Then there is this
http://www.aquaria.com.au/catalog/index.php/cPath/1_61

and at ebay is a German mix called Heka, again I've never heard of it.

Any help appreciated.
