FAQs

How much salt do I use?

Refer to the product packaging for specific instructions. The package is designed to prepare 120 liters of water; follow these ratios to prepare different volumes of water.

How long should I wait before adding fish or invertebrates?

Wait until the water parameters are stable and within the recommended ranges for your specific marine life. This generally takes a few hours to a day, depending on the aquarium setup.

Can I use tap water?

Yes, tap water is suitable, but consider using a dechlorinator to remove chlorine and chloramine.

How often should I perform water changes?

Water changes should be performed regularly. A common recommendation is 10-20% weekly, but this may vary depending on the tank's bioload.

How should I store the salt?

Store the salt in a dry place, away from moisture. Make sure to seal the package after each use.

What should I do if the water parameters are off?

Perform a water change to help correct the parameters, and test the new water for accuracy, then retest the tank water.

Troubleshooting

Salt not dissolving completely.

Ensure the water temperature is within the recommended range and mix thoroughly until all salt is dissolved.

Cloudy water after mixing.

This may be due to improper mixing. Allow the water to settle for a few hours. If the cloudiness persists, check your filtration system.
