KENT Salt mixture

[lbbudle]

Is any one using Kent Salt mix? What is your opinion of it? I have noted that typically Instant Ocean runs a bit light on Calcium and Oceanic runs a little light on Alkalinity. So how does Kent salt mix compare to either of these salts? What is KENT salt mix's best feature?? Thanks

Here's an analysis of Kent salt that is a few years old now:

From the values shown in the report, it appears that Kent may have some slight advanages over the other salt mixes. Do consider any of these to be significant?? Thanks

I've been using IO for years because I've not seen any convincing reason to switch to anythng else. :)
