1:1:1:1 will mean u double the salt, over dose.
correct ratio should be 1:1:1, use only 1 type of salt

U showed me the link...n ask me why must use marine salt?


My reason is simple, becos he got both marine salt and fresh water salt...of cos use the better one la somemore he doesnt keep marine fish and he purposely got it for the tanga...so keep also no use..

im using freshwater salt anyway

that link said :
"Marine salt is rich in minerals which is not needed for cooking or FW aquarium".

Got to make thing clear so hopefully anyone follow this thread will not waste $$$.

Anyway, the choice is yours.

Just here to share info.

Cheers
