Does anyone know what form of potassium Red Sea is using in their potassium trace element supplement? Is it potassium nitrate?

Thanks!

Seems almost certainly potassium chloride, as any two part likely uses. Potassium nitrate would be a very poor choice.

Why do you ask?

I agree, hoping it wasn’t potassium nitrate. Thank you, Randy.

Nitrates have crept up just a little and wanted to rule this out as a cause.
