Little salt beads (EMERGENCY, kind a)

[Teremei]

I'm doing a water change. I've done this for years with IO. But my current fresh salt water has alot of little "salt beads" that have not desolved. I think it's from the VERY last of my last bucket which was moist salt inside.

Should I toss this 6 gallons of fresh salt water and try again or do you think it will be ok?

I'd drop a powerhead in there and let it mix a while longer. I don't think I'd toss it but I wouldn't put the beads in there either. They should dissolve eventually.

I tossed it. I just couldn't seem to get rid of it with alot of stirring. I made 2 new buckets and with my normal stir clear as ever after 2 minutes.

Something was up there and I wasn't going to mess with it.

I had the same problem. Just threw a heater and powerhead in the rubbermaid overnight and the beads dissovled.
