Beginning a saltwater aquarium mixture

[cudamon]

If setting up a new saltwater aquarium, is it ok to put in the RO water first and place the salt in afterward and begin mixing. It will be several hundred gallons of water. After mixing, I would be putting in my live rock.

Yes. But you should let it mix for 24 hours before you put your rock in.

Thanks for the info Erin.

Sure that's fine. Lots of people do it that way when setting up a new tank. :)

 

[ErinCahir]

For sure.
