Marina Mix for Softies?

[stenchy]

Hi! It's been a long break from saltwater fishkeeping! (~6 years? haha) I've decided to keep a 15 gallon nano tank as my first reef tank. It's be skimerless and sumpless, with chaeto and softies. I'm currently using Reef Crystals as saltmix, but I've checked the ingredients in the Marina Mix and it doesn't seem to be all that bad. (The marina mix is the blue saltwater mix bag present in almost every fish store sa cartimar). Would it make sense to just switch to Marina Mix if softies were my only corals anyway? Or should I just stick with Reef Crystals? I'm also planning to add a cleaner shrimp and a few sexy shrimps in the future.

i would rather stick to reef crystals.. its one of the better brands in the market.. you can shift to instant ocean if price is the issue.. or blue treasure at the very least.. the problem with the blue bag is the consistency..

you don't want to go with the blue bag... the quality of packaging is below par and the salt itself is never good. you're better off with what you're currently using.

Alrighty! Thanks! I just thought na baka overkill yung reef crystals for softies, but my zoanthids seem happy since pagbili ko sa kanila from cartimar, closed sila and just two days after fully opened na sila
