Choosing reef salt for mixed vs SPS systems

Different reef systems ask different things of a salt mix. A mixed reef with softies, LPS and a few SPS colonies often runs well on a balanced base salt with steady water changes. A dedicated SPS system usually wants richer calcium and alkalinity support between changes.

Reef Revolution makes Reef Salt and SPS Reef Salt, with probiotic variants for keepers who want bacteria support in the mix. Pick the salt that matches your livestock and dosing habit, then follow the mix rate on the product page and the bucket.

If you are unsure, start with the system you keep today — not the system you hope to build next year — and keep water changes consistent.
