Salt consistency strategy Since I am basically starting over, I am trying to decide on salt. I have been using IO and/or Oceanic. I have read a lot of the threads and reports and like someone else said, it's enough to make you want to quit! I don't think I'm going to ask about the best salt, that item seems to be an open invitation to mayhem!  What I am wondering is consistency. If you have a 50 gal bucket of mix, it seems that you might get inconsistent results making small batches out of it (settling, so forth). But the bigger buckets are more econmical. What do you think about mixing an entire 50 gal bucket of salt into say 5 gallons of water. Then when you need a small batch, just mix the mix 1 part mix, 9 parts water and viola! 10 units of correct mix. Will the mix keep?, will it precipitate out such a concentration? Has anyone tried it?
