pH of new water
 
I think I saw this here before, but I can't find it.
What does everyone get for a pH reading with freshly mixed salt water?
Kinda like a poll without the cool little java script buttons ;)

Stephane, which salt are you using? I use I/O and my pH is 7.9 (after heavy aeration)

According to an article by Craig Bingman, it "should" mix to 8.35 :confused:

8.0 Kent salt. This was in my log book, probably the only time I ever tested it immediately after mix, (7.7) and then after aeration (powerful pump) at 15 min, and again at 24 hours (8.0).
