I'm skeptical.
It would work out very expensive. Also why use it? Hundreds of hobbyists are successfully keeping inverts with dry salt - even delicate species.
Also, they say it is live with natural bactiera, but then they say it has a 12 month shelf life - contradiction. bacteria would die off in those conditions. |

Its basically bottled seawater quite literally with a few things added to improve buffering and trace mineral levels.
Providing the source is good I imagine this would be quite a good product but it is american and the shipping to the UK would be a bit ridiculous.
I expect if everyone mixed there synthetic salts to a comparable sg to sea water of 1.027 they would sea improvements in buffering capacity calcium and the like. |
