Review: great time tested brand. mixes well - time tested salt that the pros use. Well priced and no need to get fancy higher priced salts. You’re going to end up dosing calcium and alk anyway if you keep stony corals.
Review: Consistent! - I’ve used Instant Ocean Reef Crystals for a long time, and it continues to deliver great results. The mix dissolves quickly, produces clear water, and holds stable parameters — calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium are always right where they should be. I mix mine in a 32-gallon Brute can with a heater and small pump, and it’s usually ready to use in under an hour. No residue on the heater or pump and no cloudy water. Corals have good color and polyp extension, and I’ve had excellent growth over time. Pro tip: always pour the salt into the water (not the other way around) and use a powerhead for even mixing — it keeps it from clumping and helps the parameters stay consistent. I’ve tried a few other brands, but Reef Crystals gives the best balance of quality and cost. Perfect for routine water changes and dependable results.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent product. Worth the price!
*by J***S on May 27, 2025*

This is the best aquarium salt mix on the market (for the price!). It isn't cheap, but this mix does its job a lot better than Marine Crystals. I can't speak for some of the premium brands that cost double what this does, but I can't imagine that they would be worthwhile investments. My reef tank appreciates the quality of the water, and I've had no issues getting the salt to dissolve by hand in just a few seconds.
