Please respond via PM the type and quantity of salt you would like. I will be taking orders until 8/23/10 Payment in advance will be required. Payment can be made at anytime before the cut off and can be done in person at the store or at a meeting. Payments can also be made by phone with visa/mastercard.

If you need salt before the order date (expect 7 days for delivery to the store) I do still have the 50 gallon boxes of the basic salt in stock.

After a lot of research, I really want to try this product. Though you can get the same volume of salt from other companies, the quality doesn't match up. I really think it'll make a noticeable difference in water quality and overall tank health.

I bet if you picked either the beer or the smokes, you'd have plenty of money for salt :gay1:
 
Nerds, just so yall know I started rolling my own smokes. Saving $160.00 a month now just on that!

I AM NOT GIVING UP MY BEER!!!

Would love a pail of plain TM salt Clint,,,ya know I am good for it.
 
I found this info on a thread on Reef Sanctuary and thought it might be useful.

"Per my conversation with Lou Ekus today, I can hopefully explain the true differences between Tropic Marin and Tropic Marin Pro Reef J

Note: Mr. Ekus has ‘read and approved’ the following. If you have questions, contact Lou Ekus, Director of US Operations, Tropic Marin USA, 44 Center Street, Montague, MA. 01351, voice: 413-367-0101, fax: 413-367-0144, www.tropicmarin-usa.com.


There are ONLY three differences between Tropic Marin (TM) and Tropic Marin Pro Reef (TM PR):

1. Alkalinity
2. Calcium
3. Magnesium

ALL other components (70 trace elements and major salts) are exactly the same.

Tropic Marin at a specific gravity of 1.024 has:

* 9-10 dKH
* 380 ppm Ca
* 1100 ppm Mg

Tropic Marin Pro Reef at a specific gravity of 1.024 has:

* 6.5 – 7.0 dKH
* 420 ppm Ca
* 1350 ppm Mg

Tropic Marin Pro Reef was designed for reefs that tend to acquire a high alkalinity after years of using calcium reactors and kalkwasser. Keeping a lower alkalinity has been found to allow corals to better absorb calcium. Depending on the values of alkalinity in your reef , it might be best to use Tropic Marin instead of TM Pro Reef, or vice versa.

In slightly different terms, the ONLY good reason for using Tropic Marin Pro-Reef is if the alkalinity in your tank is continuing to rise to an undesirable level and you don’t want to contribute to that rising level with water changes. It is important to note that using Pro-Reef will not lower your alk but will not contribute to the rise as the original formula might. That slightly higher levels of Mg and Ca in the Pro-Reef are NOT a reason for using it because you are adding so much Ca and Mg on a daily basis anyway to your tank."

And here is the link for the discussion that went along with the above information: http://www.reefsanctuary.com/forums...24-tropic-marin-vs-tropic-marin-pro-reef.html
 
It is not to late.

I just heard from Luo.. The entire US shipment of salt and other products has been delayed by customs. There will be NO tropic marin salt in the pipe for at least 2 weeks. With that said, this presale will contine for at least another week. In the mean time, if you need salt (I am all out of tropic marin) I will be placing an order for Reef Crystals in the next few days. I will delay this order till Friday so that those of you that need salt and can not wait can order that. I can also get caralife, IO, Kent and Seachem salts.
 
Ok, I called around to a few places and found a small supply of buckets left. Standard salt, Pro-reef or Bio-atif. There are a few odd ball items as well. including some 300 gallon sacks.

Order must be placed by Friday. So get your orders in asap.
