Red Sea is no produced my chemists in a lab it comes from the ocean. that's the pointNo, it isn’t. One cannot dry down seawater to a sold, and then rehydrate it to make seawater again. Some things like calcium carbonate precipitate and do not redissolve. Red Sea coral pro also does not match natural seawater parameters. Alk, for example, is very high. So they must add in extra sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, etc.
They very closest it could be (and I’m not even convinced it is this, but I do not really know) is to dry seawater, then add back some chemicals to get something close to seawater. Another possibility is to dry seawater to collect the basic chemicals separately (which is done all over the world to produce table salt and other chemicals) and then recombine them in appropriate ratios. I do not know which salt companies use either of these possible processes.
Some companies, of course, may also use mined or synthesized source chemicals.
