making an emergency batch of saltwater
 
Is it ok to make 2 gallons of saltwater out of ro water and instant ocean salt and let them mix for a couple of hours with a heater and powerhead? Some a$$ dumped my extra water out and I need to do an emergency water change... Normally I let sit for a couple days. Anyone?

I do 10g weekly on my 90g as soon as its mixed... I dont even heat it up, just throw it in a pail and hand mix then blast with a maxjet 1200 for 10 min and done.

i changed the water
 
Well I mixed it up and let it sit for a couple hours mixing now hopefully the kenya trees perk back up but they were super shriveled and purple and small.... Couldn't see any brown hopefully they not dead...

If you're worried about Kenya trees... I have about 800 tiny frags for you.
