Instant Ocean Sea Salt (10 gal)

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

I used 1 scoop of this for approximately 4 gallons of water (almost full 5 gallon bucket) for a brackish water tank and this salt works great. I would pour the salt in roughly when the bucket was halfway so I could swirl it around easily and then by the time the bucket was 4/5ths full then the salt was usually dissolved enough. With a capful of primer and the water was ready to dump. I never found a need to wait a certain amount of time and it never seemed to bother the fish. In fact the fish usually swam to the water as I poured it in.

After having a couple of hermit crabs die. I decided I will do my best to do everything right. They seem to love sitting in the saltwater pool. They will pee in the freshwater but not the salt. LOL

The salt dissolved quickly as stated on the box. The reason I did not give five stars is the box was already open and the top was ripped open with part of the top not even all there. The salt is five stars, but I deducted one star which in my view is Amazons bad for shipping a box that was probably a return. fortunately, the salt was still sealed in the plastic bag that contained the salt.

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.

I like this product, but but I think that some product was lost

We use this for our salt water fish tanks. We use it all the time

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.

Mixes very well with little effort
