Ive been using reef crystals and instant ocean since I entered into this hobby.... I have always noticed that the mixture was cloudy after 4 hours or 24 hours, clear but not crystal clear, I've seen almost a foam on top sometimes... I've had some very successful sps systems with this salt... This worries me though because I plan to setup a wage change system now that will change 5 gallons a day over the course of a month.... So will the salt mix precipitate and become super cloudy over that time? Should I mix the salt for 4 hours and then leave the circulation pump off? Or contuine to circulate over the course of the month.....? I know this is different, but the natural sea water they sell in stores is not being circulated so ? That makes me wonder if that's the route I should take.... But do they store it with nitrogen inside , so oxygen can not caus problems??? Things to consider....
