i doing some research on Reef Crystals and I getting a number of bad reviews in terms of users claiming that the specs giving my Reef Crystals is inaccurate and inconsistent...some even saying that it almost the same specs as the normal instant ocean salt

http://aquacraft.net/general/facts-uree ... e1fontsup/

das one of many...some saying it might be a bad batch....but numerous ppl complaining

[HondaB20B]

I using reef crystals since inception of my tank (1yr & 2wks) and never had any problems with it. I get good reading and good growth wiyh my corals and fish. I dose 1/4 the recommended dosage of B-Ionic one a wk and i'm maintaining 420-460 Cal & 9+ in Alk. My Mag is 1500. My PH is 8.2-8.4.
I believe in my reef cystals. Their are hundreds of Salts on the market with all kinda claims................... for all you know is one manufacturer and people just buying it and packaging it too sell..................... ......who knows.
Just like i've read real crazy things (online) with Bio-pellets and that thing is running in my tank for over 9mths with fantastic results. Men get algae blooms for days and nitrates still high.......................... me, i got an algae bloom the second day for half day and thats it. I'll never give up on it........................... if you see my tank in person, you'll believe

dont do anything until your tank has settled for the next 2-3mths. All you gonna do is also trap copepods and amphypods in it , along with other stuff that is beneficial to your tank. Just let it run. The one by natures world is not the best but it will work for now................ Raj sells Night-out II. Reason why i told you go by natures world is because of your transportation issues. Not too sure who has saltwater test kits but you can also check Nu-Image in Gulf City.........their prices way too hot, but when you dont have a choice

[Reefplanet]

ehh...imma just order it off amazon.Raj has test kits?

[HondaB20B]

ehh...imma just order it off amazon.Raj has test kits?

I really dont know about the 4 in 1 (PH, nitrates, nitrites ammonia) test kits. I know he has them individually though.

[Reefplanet]

oh ...well i hv to order one den...

[HondaB20B]

oh ...well i hv to order one den...

call d man and ask him. also call nu-image and see whats the prices. Other than them, there is Pantins in POS (Pantin St).
You have to call around

[Reefplanet]

ugh...imma just call raj, that would be easier

[Reefplanet]

Well if is table salt, it working real good for me. Along with all the other reefmen that buy it

honda should I remove the filter sock from my freshwater tank as well? seeing that u said the filter sock traps beneficial organisms in saltwater tanks?

but seriously I woulda like to know the specs so i can purchase the BEST salt....especially if these companies making claims of high calcium concentrations when users complaining that when they check it out it is less that the amount advertised

i dont know about freshwater pal.
And the filtersock, i've never used one on my tank, but the info i'm giving you is what i've read. I cant say its the bible......... Allot of people actually use it when they vacuume their sand bed to collect the detrius and silt. And then they remove it after a few hrs. That way amphipods and copepods dont get trapped in it. Also read that after some time in the tank it starts to carry up your nitrates. Who knows, it might work for you. Just like you've read where the reef crystals have issues, i've read where the socks have the same.

" BEST INFO IS USE WHAT WORKS FOR YOU......

So UML, if you seeing ah whole set of people buyin reef crystals and getting good results, you will still buy a product that is down on the bottom of the list? The thing is, Reef crystals is not even the top of the list............. its like in-between 20-30 in over 200. If you want higher grade salt, i think Raj has one in the bucket for $900 0r $1200 for 200 gal, whereby RC is $600 for 200gal. Did you watch the Chart on the first page? http://reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1287118

So what you gonna do, drop the Salt back by him?
