So my suggestion is use Saliinity first..............it will cost more but bring huge benefits and save money on all the liquid products, ph buffers and all the other stuff they sell in stores..........after you use salinity then test and see if you need to go the next next mile like RO products and all the rest of it.
Your salt mix is the single most thing that will affect water quality, period.

That is so over the top, I have to ask,
Do you have any relationship with the Seachem or Aquavitro folks?
Why do you think ions can vary by 60% batch to batch in IO and RC? Which ions do you think vary that much?
No matter how pure a salt mix is, it won't do anything for impure starting fresh water. I also do not know if it is any purer than other brands. They provide an analysis, but even it is is accurate, what is one to compare it to?
How is it going to save on buffers? It has equal or less alkalinity than many other mixes.
What liquid products would you use less of?
