This is probably old news to most here but I just stumbled across this:

Why such a discrepancy between this report and what's reported in the "Synthetic Salt Mixes" sticky? (Things like calcium and magnesium in particular.) Is it simply because the tests were done at different SG?

I think a number of the salt mixes have been reformulated, and there have been a lot of issues with AWT testing.
