Hmm.. seems v far from advertised numbers..

Ie.. ca said to be 500+. Mg 1600+.

maybe quality issues or test kits..

Any other bro has any numbers out there?

I am using the SPS i did not add Ca but my Ca went up to 500. Mg only 1300+ KH around 8 to 9

any updates on bros using this? How is it compared to H2Ocean?

Is there a time frame after mixing to use the mixed water of can it be done one or two days later....

No problem at all have use it three days after mixing.

Have used three buckets of the sps mix already and all my sps are doing great and growing fast.

any updates? i wonder how this salt fare up against the Red Sea Coral Pro salt or H2Ocean.

[magical26]

I would like to know as well. Currently using Red Sea Coral Pro, not sure should I make the switch to Blue Treasure

[Kakani]

Red Sea pro and DD H20 will be better salt. Due to trace element. But blue treasure sea CA,MG,KH on high side which is good for water change.

[magical26]

From what I read, am I right to say blue treasure salt gives higher Ca, Mg, Kh. While Red Sea coral pro & DD provides not as high Ca, Mg, Kh, but higher amounts of trace element?

Mix 50/50 Blue Treasure and RSCP for water change lor...perfect match...LOL!

[tqut]

High Ca, Mg & KH is not necessary good when you want to maintain absolute stability.

I would rather the Big 3 (Ca,Mg, KH) numbers are lower to match my tank parameters so there is no swing everytime I change water...

My comments on Blue Treasure:-

1) to wear a mask when you are adding the salt as it is so fine that it floats in the air and it is not good if you happen to inhale

2) after I throw an airstone in to circulate the salt in the jellycan, I notice fine residual at the base of the jellycan which cannot be dissolved.

I wonder if any one using Blue Treasure has the same issues. I have switched back to Tropic Marin since. Not a big fan of China-made products anyway and if they can do funny things to human food they can do anything...just my personal opinion.

[Evolutionz]

RS Coral pro also can see lots of powder floating around when pouring salt into water.

Im very happy with RS coral pro as of now.. only need 1 hour + to mix salt completely and achieving crystal clear water.. never had any cloudy problem with this salt..

Its not ideal to mix the salt brand as the parameter will all be out.

Hahaha...just joking to bro magical26 only..... !

[magical26]

Haha... Yup, I know. Hmm... Seems like we can't really deduce whether Blue Treasure is a good salt to use anot.

I second to the statement. Printed statement and actual composition need to be verified.printing like talking is cheap. Consistency and reliability are solely lacking in China made products. Responsibility is not a trait.

This hobby is just too expensive to take a big risk for a small saving.

Ever wonder why mainland Chinese prefer to buy milk in HK?

It's my personal opinion based on real experience.

Very true.. salt mix is like the backbone and brain of a marine set up. Best to pay abit more to go for reputable brand..

[magical26]

Hi fellow reefers, just wondering... Who still using Blue Treasure Salt? When it was first out, there was a lot of hype because of the price. Anyone still using? Any issues with it?
