    this is how much your salt mix matter..... 0.01%

    If I were you I would buy two 200 gallon boxes of instant ocean. when they arrive, open them all up and mix them togther then put in gallon zip locks or whatever.

    instant ocean is great salt it can just vary a little from batch to batch in terms of cal and alk. Buying two boxes will even your results out in terms of elements. $50 per box and amazon delivers to your door...

    so $100 equals 360 gallons of mix / 5 gallons a week that is over a year of salt! ok, maybe just one box. (god I wish I had a small tank, a box lasts me like a month)

    you need 2 5 gallon buckets. mix the salt and drop a $10 amazon heater in it. next day use a sand vac and empty the water into a 5 gallon bucket. when your done just dump the new water in. tadah...clean sand and happy fish.

    the key is just measuring exactly how much salt you need...and put a marker line on your 5 gallon for water volume reference.

    this is exactly how I am currently doing it except I am using fritz salt and a power head while mixing. I use a food scale to weigh salt mix amount.
