    Default ESV Salt and FOWLR Tanks

    I would like to use one salt for all of my tanks. I plan to have it premixed in a barrel of RO for easy water changes.

    I have a 55g reef tank,
    20g Galaxea + Damsels tank, and a
    180g FOWLR (Fish only w/ Live Rock) Tank.

    I want to start using ESV salt.

    Are there any reasons why shouldn't I use it for my FOWLR tank?

    It will not hurt your fish or anything it is just geared toward tanks with corals since it has higher Ca, Alk, Mag levels.
    I understand the need to want to only mix one type of salt but I would not waste the good higher priced salt on a Fish only.
    Instant Ocean or Kent would be cheaper.
    You could get two mixing barrels and label each
