What brand of salt was it? Did they replace the bucket? What test kit did you use? Most major brands of salt are made in huge batches and if they simply sent you another bucket it was probably from the same lot.It is always possible your test was off(quality control is usually pretty good on the major brands).

It was reef crystals, by IO i think, by reading another thread by him...

He had another post saying it was reef crystals.

I would hope if he bought 100's of tons they'd replace it gladly. Must have a big tank.

Ha Ha Yup big tank turning lake Champlain into a salt lake . Yes it was reefcrystals there sending two new buckets and yes had water tested and cal is low for some reason. But they took care of it . Quality control is usualy good but it happends. Explains why when I did water change cal droped considerbly. Thats why after 3 weeks of up and down drastically I decided to check the salt water I prepared at 1.026-26 SG.
