My go-to LFS place for salt is Sea Level Aquariums, where plain Instant Ocean 200G was $35....and I can't remember what Reef Crystals was...maybe $45. But I just checked, and they just upped the price to $40 and $50, respectively.

Erna, so sorry to see this. Did Brian verify your results with test kits he might have brought along? If your nitrate number is real, I'd stop doing water changes. You didn't mention phosphate, but seeing a zero for nitrate I would assume that would be zero as well. All living things...
