You Gotta get this stuff
Date: December 24, 2006
"I purchased ten gallons for my 55 gallon tank and the minute I got home I drained off 10 Gallons from my aquarium and put it to the test. In less than ten hours my fish( a purple tang) Got his beautiful colors back and seems to notice the difference right away. I love this product because I don't have to mix and I think my salt mixing is awful. I plan on buying all my aquarium water this way from now on. I can't wait to get the whole tank done and start doing corals and more live rock. I dreaded the thought of adding more pets because I was afraid I would hurt them. Tank you Catalina Water you are a Godsend."

SIMPLY THE BEST !!!!
Date: May 20, 2006
"I just recently set up a small saltwater tank and did much research before hand. I decided since I was a novice with saltwater and that this product was rated so good , I would start out using the best. I'm very pleased with this and my clown fish are very happy too!! It's really worth the money when you consider that you need not test it or anything. I use it for partial water changes and will never use anything else!! Water is absolutely crystal clear. Don't even consider using anything else!!"

Catalina Water
Date: May 28, 2007
"I think this water is a great product and I'm happy Petco carries it. All test were dead on with a perfect salinity of 1.024 and high Alkalinty of 12 dkh. All in all, very pleased with this product. Only issues with water is low Calcium levels which I tested to be about 360 ppm and price is a little high, I remember 2 years ago when it was $8.99 in the store and it's now $11.99. Still worth the money, especially if your in a jam and need water for a quick water change."

Very convenient, quality product...
Date: January 28, 2007
"So far I am happy using this product for over 2 months. It makes it a lot easier to start a reef aquarium, and do water changes. I always test the water before for ph and salinity but usually they are dead on. (I also use multiple test kits). One reviewer's criticism was that the cost is triple over time than if you mix your own salt water... If you can afford this then why not, the quality is there there are no hidden costs."

very satisfied
Date: December 2, 2006
"i used to use instant ocean salt mixes, everything was going fine. Then at Petco, I saw a box of this seawater and decided to try it. So i did a 5 gallon water change and added 5 gallons of catalina seawater to my 150 saltwater tank. The next morning, my tank looked beter than before. All my triggerfish (2) humu, odnus triggers were all swimming around happily. Then when i noticed my corals , they were never been this open than before!! Great product and you will never have problems with nitrate again!!!!"

A little dissapointed....
Date: November 21, 2006
"I
purchased this product and was a little dissapointed..... the box says
that no testing is involved but on the back it says to test the
salinity. When I did the salinity was pretty high @ 1.028 not too
bad.... nothing some fresh RO water couldn't fix but before I added the
fresh water I tested everything else. the problem was that the ph was
not 8.3 as promised but down at 7.8.... Used fresh water and a buffer
and the water seems fine now. otherwise its a good water and very
convienent for my size tank (5 gallons) I will most likely purchase
this product again."

The water
Date: June 8, 2006
"I,ve been using this water for 3 months now. I have noticed NO difference in my corals and fishes. The cost of buying this product overtime adds up to triple the amount you would pay for buying the regular salt mixes. DON'T BUY IT!"

Awesome Product
Date: December 7, 2005
"I will never use Salt Mixtures again. I replaced 75% of my 55 gallon with the Catalina Water and have not had any more problems with ICH or other saltwater issues. I use Catalina Water for all my water changes."
