I've been using Instant ocean, but I just ordered reef crystals as I heard it has more calcium.
Good sale on fostersmith, almost over.

That is a personal choice. I like Tropic Marin Pro Reef. I get good results from it without having to add much else to get the calcium and alk where I want it.

IO - have been using it exclusively for 6 years so I can't compare it to anything else, then again I haven't had any problems with IO to make me want to switch.
