Changing Salt Mix


Recommended Posts

  • SRC Member

Hi

Bros, I'm changing my salt mix From Red Sea Salt to Red Sea Coral Pro.. When I'm mixing the new salt mix, i found that the PH is >8.6.. my current tank is only at 8.0.. how to deal with this dude.. I'm scared to drop the new salt mix into my tank. But i have no choice bcoz water have already been taken out of the tank.

That's the reason why people aerate their newly mixed salt mix for at least 24 hours before using. A circulation pump won't work, you need an air pump and airstone to introduce CO2 into the water to bring down the pH.

Always something more important than fish.
