Live Aquaria has a really good price on their salt today. Anybody use this long term on an sps tank? I am thinking of trying it. I use Fritz now and the parameters are the same, but obviously won’t be worth the savings if it causes any issues.

I have heard the LA salt is just repackaged Fritz..but I have no proof

I have been using it for about 6 months so far it has been consistent

I’ve used a couple boxes. Seems fine. I do 10 - 20 gallon changes in my 200ish total water volume sps tank with no major swings.
