Instant Ocean Sea Salt (10 gal)

Professional aquariums use this salt. Enough said! Ok, but theres more to say! Heres when you should use this versus using the Reef Crystals version or other reef salts. USE THIS IF You are doing Fish only You are doing Fish with SOFT corals You have LPS and SPS but are dosing kalkwasser or 2-part to replenish calcium and mg. USE A REEF SALT IF If you have LPS and SPS corals but arent dosing (kalkwasser, 2-part, etc.) This isnt always true but thats my general advice for salts. Its economical and mixes well. Lots of great reef tanks use IO and it has a proven track record.

I bought this for hatching Baby Brine Shrimp and it works great. I feed them to freshwater fish (betta, corydoras, white clouds, hillstream loach) and havent had any problems . I sometimes filter the shrimp out or pour them in with the brine and havent had any issues. I do keep heavily planted tanks though.

Great value for the money! We use this for our saltwater pool in our hermit crab tank. We use 1 Tbs at a time since the pool is the minimum size recommended of a 2 cup capacity. This brand is highly recommended from all of the crab groups we are in. It has lasted for months and we are only half way through it. Will definitely be ordering more at the end of Summer.

Mixes very well with little effort

It’s the perfect blend of salt

I’m not sure why but my salt is as hard as a rock now. I keep the bag closed when I’m not using it, but it’s like cement now. Other than that, it dissolves well and my fish aren’t dead so

Is it the best salt out there, no. Is it the best salt out there in this price range, heck yes. I have used instant ocean sea salt since 2010 and it has not let me down. Always mix your salt water separate from your tank test it before you do a water change. It’s that easy. This product will deliver the right salt and mineral quantities every time.

Over the past 5 years, I have never ran into any problems with this brand. It delivers what it promises and It dissolves fairly quickly in the water. I have a 20 gallon tank and it takes half a bag to fill my tank. A full bag carries enough salt for a 50 gallon tank.

Instructions are easy to read, great value for your $$, and easy to store. We use a gallon jug for measurements which are conveniently on the package! Quick shipping is a great perk!!

Ive been using Instant Ocean for over Thirty years. I started using it when I started my Hobby, when I became a research scientist and throughout the Thirty five years I ran an Aquarium business. I cannot recommend this salt enough.. Reef Tank, Invert Tank or a Simple Table top tank. Ive installed aquariums up to Ten Thousand Gallons, and as small as 1 gallon. They were all filled with Instant Ocean.. Now that I am almost retired?.. Getting it delived to your door for this price?... Priceless!
