Tropic Marin Pro Salt - Triton Test

that Reef Guy · May 15, 2015

Has anybody done a Triton Test for Tropic Marin Pro Salt (Newly made Saltwater Not Tank Water)?

I ask because since I switched from Reef Crystals my Acros have been coloring up very nicely.

I am wondering if there is a "Secret Ingredient" that Tropic Marin Pro uses to give Corals more Color?

Somebody did a Triton Test of their Tank Water to reveal very high levels of Lithium and they were Dosing Tech-M to Kill Bryopsis.

Others noted the same thing.

Everyone wondered what the secret ingredient in Tech-M was and now we know.

Maybe the same can be done here.

Also, if anybody has done a Triton Test for Reef Crystals (Newly made Saltwater Not Tank Water)? please let me know too so I can compare the two salts that I have used.

Cool.

Thanks for doing that.

So it was Very High in Iron and Manganese.

Is that bad or good for Coral?

I have no Clue about Manganese but in Freshwater Planted Tanks people Dose Iron so I think that might lead to more Algae but I could be wrong.

Anybody else Test Tropic Marin Pro so we can see if there are any differences in batches or see how stable their salt really is.

Please Post any Results.

I have not seen any other results on this site with TMP salt, but I did test reef crystals here:
