Are you planning to switch to Red Sea permanently? Or you switched to TM from RS and it was old leftovers ?

I mixed TM with IO and it didn’t tick anything off too bad.

There should be no salt mix that is incompatible with any other mix for combining them.

I never understood why it would matter to mix salts, or just switch totally. Done it countless times. I’m always after the best value that works for me.

Maybe if you’re going from tropic marin ( low alk) to black bucket or fritz red (high alk) and doing a huge water change?
