    Just talked with a commercial plumber friend of mine. He said the anode in a water heater is magnesium or a mixture with magnesium in it.
    So as Mumbles says, not that i doubted his info, magnesium is for fresh water.
    I have a friend who is a retired commercial electrician,worked at a lumber mill on Puget Sound. I’m sure he will have some stories and info also.
    Thanks, Jim PSB
