I’m sure there will be many different suggestions on this, but I use Red Sea Coral pro salt..

There are many salts available so an idea of what parameters you run your tank at will give us an idea of a salt to recommend. Thanks

I used TM Pro a while and switched to Classic to get a higher dKh.

Aquacave has Pro but there's a $20 shipping surcharge. its $120 for 200 gallon bucket; not terrible given the circumstances.

+1 to using whatever salt most closely matches your parameters. However, I switched to TM Pro after learning higher alk salts tend to "gunk up" my storage containers.

And so you keep your setup at a lower alkalinity so it doesn't gunk up your aquarium; or you don't care if your aquarium is gunked up, just the container?

I've been using Reef Crystals for years. I've tried a bucket or bag of other salts (more expensive and cheaper) now and again and never saw day-to-day measurable difference. I certainly saw no visual difference in my coral.
