bareefers BOD BOD BARcard Nov 18, 2005 #1 It is possible to just switch salt brands w/o any negative effects?
Elite Guest BARcard Nov 18, 2005 #2 I believe you have to do that slowly. If you change all at once, you may bleach your coral.
bareefers BOD BOD BARcard Nov 18, 2005 #3 I wouldn't change all at once, I'm talking about just starting with another brand during the next ~10% water change. Are there any adverse effects in mixing brands?

HammerHead Guest BARcard Nov 18, 2005 #4 I use IO and Oceanic every other week. I have not seen any adverse effects. Sometimes I even mix the two together.

prodman Guest BARcard Nov 20, 2005 #7 I just switched away from IO. I was tired of the high alk and low CA. 11-12dkh and 300 CA. Currently I am mixing IO and Oceanic 50/50.
