jervismun Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 Done with ur water changing session? How often u change water bro? How much? I am also seriously considering using another brand for sea salt... started my Nano with Tropic Marin, then change to Aqua Medic. Then got 2 more 4kg boxes free from LFS for Perc90. The remaining box is finishing soon... what brand u suggest I go for?

SRC Member Qxnviolet Posted April 8, 2006 Author SRC Member Share Posted April 8, 2006 Hrmz, seriously, i don't really know much abotu salts. Maybe you can do a search on the forum, think some time ago there was a thread comparing all the salts. I was using ME all along, but switched to 1 bag of "forgot what brand" salt which costs aroung $28 per bag instaed of the close to $40 a bag of ME salt costs. I don't do any extra parameter tests apart from the basics so i cant really comment on what the differences are too. As for water changes i chaneg approx 20L (8%) a week....
