    NSW from the Seattle Aqaurium - salinity adjustment?

    i have been using NSW from the Seattle Aquarium for over 10 years now with no issues. Been using it in both reefs and fish only tanks. Yes you need to adjust salinity at times but once you get it set you are good. I have set up to haul 1500g in one shot. Its still cheaper than making with dry.

    Amount of Bowing In Your Acrylic Tank

    custom 150 acrylic by CFI with custom sumps. tank 60x24x24 with 1/2 acrylic, euro top with coast to coast over flow. ZERO BOW. Super build quality. Also 2 custom 24x24x16 sumps out of 1/2 acrylic. yes 1/2 acrylic. could park my f350 dually on it and wont break. CFI is the best around in my opinion.
