Seachem do make a reef salt; it was my first choice until I couldn't get it any more. It is excellent in my opinion and I never had any problems with it. Saying that I now have used three different salts; seachem, reef crystals and H2ocean and to be honest they are all much the same. The only salt I have ever had any trouble with was Redsea; full of nitrates and phosphates, lacked buffers and salinity varied wildly every time I mixed a bucket.
I am sure they have fixed that now but with the negative experience and so many alternatives available I will find it hard to make a case for using it.

Hope this helps

Before you open it, roll it around to mix the salt up
