so, i remember a thread a few motnhs back about mixing up your own salt mix, and it was soon apparent, thet it simply would not work feasably in a small scale system.
but what if you got a big 1,000 gallon barrel, filled it with salt water, and allowed it to evaporate (maybe help it along in the begining w some fire in the beggining)
would that salt be perfect and safe?
do people do this already?
it certaintly seems like a great idea. 1,000 gallons of salt water will leave enough salt for 1,000+ gallons of aquarium salt water!
cheap and simple.
now, feel free to tear my idea to pieces! rip me a new one!
