Hey all! I wanted to reach out and see what salt folks are using for AWC applications? And what some of their opinions are.
I have a 20g reseviour setup with DOS doing daily water changes of 1.4g per day. I’m currently using AF probiotic for my salt. However I’m noticing a brown film starting to deposit on the bottom of the container as well as on the pump & heater. I don’t heat the water after it’s mixed and it takes about 2wks or so to burn through it.
I did some reading and I’m beginning to think the probiotic salts aren’t a good idea to use for this application. What is everyone else using? Is Red Sea blue or black bucket better or is there another brand more suited to this application.
LFS has Red Sea, AF & IO on the shelves and they keep pushing AF.
