    Dont really know anything about it, but its probably not as "premium" as they say it is. Personally, i would go with a name brand like Instant Ocean

    I cannot remember exactly, but I am sure I have read somewhere that one of the larger well known companies does the OEM branding for Petco

    so it is possibly a well known brand, in a different packaging possibly

    As a large chain retailer, I seriously doubt Petco actually makes their own. I don't know what salt mix they rebrand, but their Petco NSW is Catalina, a large supplier of Pacific Ocean water for public aquariums. :)
