Question Anyone tried this saltwater??

I've seen this new product in the store's as well as my TFH (Tropical Fish Hobbyist) magazine lately. It "CLAIMS" to be 100% ocean water at it's "PUREST FORM". I was wondering if anyone here has used it yet?? I was thinking of using it when I do water changes. For example I empty 10g out of my tank and replace it with 5g of my mix which is Instant Ocean and 5g of it. I would hope it would help by adding live bacteria, calcium, iodine, ect. as well as help maintain ph by buffering. Just looking for others input on it.

What do you think??

Yea this website doesn't say things like what part of the Ocean they pull it from or what region. Is it from deep down or around a shallow reef?? It doesn't say. Or I missed where it said it did.

The company is from Florida so I am sure it has a little orange Juice in.

It didn't seem to be a HOT seller, Plus it was quite pricey to me.

it sounds like a bit of a excess item, not really needed and way over priced
