As a NSW user, is the usual ASW highly consistent? If so, how?

Just finished this testing/comparison here. I'm no expert but hopefully gives people a little more info.

The ph of the salt is not right . Nor is the alk, i use it , just salt n mag the add a buffer to get ph n alk right, however, after my crash( bad hydrometer) i use this n fish are fine, my test coral mushroom aint opening normally,

A triton test would be interesting but I too would be worried about quality control. I mean this stuff is meant for outdoor pools, it's not exactly food grade.

Still running with it @holly ?

Stupid question
But would it be safe to use for a new cycle?

 

[IJG3145]

Personally I wouldn't. You want the start up to have everything right.

Since I know nothing about it except what I've read here, take my thoughts with a grain of salt .....couldn't resist, I'm childish that way..... :rofl

I'm just thinking to get 300l going for a while with some base rock, then doing decent water changes with better stuff
