Storing saltwater bought from Lfs


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I'm currently having a 1 ft nano tank and water change is about 2-3 litre. I usually bought a pack of 10L saltwater from lfs. I'm wondering how long can I keep the saltwater for subsequent wc and how to store it for longer period. I was told by lfs to add air pump in the saltwater so long as no algae and can keep very long. Thanks in advance.

Thanks, if no bubbling just pour them into container, can it be usable for 2 weeks?

no. bacteria and stuff will start dying.... water perimeters might not be ideal. since water change is too small, why not invest in a di unit and use salt mix?

Thanks all for the replies,

Hi ts, u mention saltwater , I assume it's NSW . Better to bubble,if not like bro vtec mentioned. Bacteria will die off and the water quality will be affected.
It's salt mix I'm referring not natural sea water
