Mixing TMP salt...
I picked up a bucket of TMP salt today, as I have decided to switch from IO. Question is, it says on the container that after it is dissolved, it is ready to be added to the tank. I know most people wait atleast 24 hours, should I still be letting it sit, or is it safe to use straight away?
Thanks for any input! Jason

Cool, thanks. I remember seeing a poll a while back with everyone doing something different. How do you like the TMP so far, I guess because you havent switched it cant be too bad?

Works for me. I do try and wait a day most of the time, but for the first 5months i didnt even bother cuz i didnt have an extra powerhead and heater to let it do its thing... I do want to try that new salt from germany.. forgot the name but for $100 a box umm... well i cant afford that, haha.

Thanks. I think you are thinking of the Zeo salt. That stuff is pricey, but apparently pretty good. I will give this stuff a shot, it should last me a while!

Just mixed up a batch of KZ RBS the other day. I'll follow up with my impressions over the next couple of weeks.
One really quick comment I have though, the stuff mixes clear in under ten minutes and everything test PERFECT, including potassium.

Might be Reefers choice too. Same thing, salt is aerated and moving well, so as soon as it is disolved I use it. I also have made the switch from I/O to TMP. Still too early to tell if it is worth the price as yet..No doubt that as far as I/O goes it is still more bang for the buck when it comes to price. At least so far...

I have been using TMP for a year now and always use it as soon as it dissolves in RO/DI water .
I think ZEO manual recommends using salt right away without any aging. J&L has reefers salt $99.99 for 150gal mix TMP is $79 for 200Gal mix. .
