We bought AF “reef” salt in group early March of 2024. I bought 4boxes but down to my last one. 2 were given to other reefer. After this one is gone, I will change to other brand of salt. Tropic Marine or ESV. That being said, I like it. Never had any issues. Mixes clear and very fast within 30mins and ready to use.
I started with the AF reef salt. No issues with it, and it was fine. I had some "math" problems lol, figuring out how much I needed to mix, but that's on me. From what I've learned, the thing to be aware of when switching salt brands is the difference in certain elements. As in, the mixed saltwater may have different levels of alk, calcium, etc.
Great stuff. We use it on @Adam systems. Mixes well, clears fast with little precipitate. We've tried quite a few different types over the years and this is a good balance between quality and value. (Something tells me there will be another group buy on it before too long.)
After many PM's from awesome ARC members, we are considering another group buy on salt, minimum will be 40 boxes so we can get a pallet(s). There will be a couple rules this time, b/c it took some folks a month + to pickup salt and that isn't fair to us. You will have 1 week to pickup the salt...

We have started a group buy again. If you can post the number you want in that thread once we hit 40 I will place the order. Only take a couple days to get to us via freight.
