Ive been spending hours and hours on the internet to find out what the right way to use natural sea water in a tank is. Ive been getting so many different ways to use it and its very confusing. Since I stay a few hundred metres from the ocean and I can get very clean water, Im using it. I mix it with r/o water when doing water changes to get the correct salinty level.
What is the correct way of using it.?
some say I must let the nsw stand in a dark place for a few days before I use it for the small organisms to die and then sink to the bottom. others say I must filter it to take out all the organisms. Im from hermanus so the water temp is quite a bit colder than my tanks. Any suggestions or should I just switch to a good salt mix.
