    I have put
    together a deal on 200 gallon boxes of salt for $45 delivered to Des
    Moines. I need to sell a minimum of 20 boxes for it happen and it must
    be picked up in Des Moines. This is a GIRS members only deal. A great time to join the club and make back a big part of your membership dues right away!

    If you could might as well get Reef Crystals!  I have changed over from IO and haven't looked back.

    Yes, it is a great time to switch then. Only marginally but RC is a better salt. The offer was for RC so I am not sure if I can get IO.

    There is a difference in Calcium and Magnesium making it better for coral the might also be some other slight differences....  but if you are in need of some salt this is the time to get it all the mixing is the same as IO.

    I actually like IO better than RC. IO tests having higher magnesium and only slightly less calcium than RC in my mixes. I have to dose up both either way.

    If I remember right the new RC packaging says now with more Cal and Mag....  but who knows.
