Tropic Marin is great salt if that's what they really use. The reason I say that is because it's expensive and I would expect most LFS would go cheaper. The sg is a bit low I'd aim for 1.025-1.026

I suggest mixing your own. For the LFS water, you could leave it open to evaporate, but that could take some time.

u think i could just buy some saltwater from them then raise up the sg by adding some more salt to it?
