Delphinus88 February 22, 2015 Share February 22, 2015 How much water do you keep on hand, ready for water changes? What percentage of your total volume do you have mixed and ready to go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madweazl February 22, 2015 Share February 22, 2015 I have three, 7g containers that I keep full but usually end up using one of them for drinking water. I'm moving up to a 75g (from 50g) and will have to figure something else out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuffyGeos February 22, 2015 Share February 22, 2015 You can ne'er have enough RO/DI , and saltwater on hand - IMO If you could have 50% ready made saltwater and 50% RO/DI water ready I think you can handle most reeding issues besides a broken tank. IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmerek2 February 22, 2015 Share February 22, 2015 I have only about 20% saltwater mixed and ready at full capacity but I run it out before making more. I do smaller but more often water changes to help prevent temp and PH swing. Now RODI I have enough to last 1.5 weeks for when I go out of town. Just make sure your top is designed not to siphon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aquaknott March 2, 2015 Share March 2, 2015 I have two 30 gallon Rubbermaid cans. One I keep filled with RODI the other I keep filled with a salt mixture. I have heaters in both tanks and circulation pumps in both as well. That way I have either ready and at a Temp I can use without worry about shocking g my fish..

I'm thinking about going with a pair of 20g cans. Edited March 2, 2015 by madweazl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
