Ok herd and read alot of different ways to do your first water change. I was thinking of 20% (45L / 11Gal) Tank size is 250L / 65Gal, sump size 50L 14Gal. Would this be a sufficiant first water change? As i dont have an RO filter i have to use "pureatap" this is water thats been filtered through a carbon filter. This is the steps i was going to do today ready for tomorrow.
1. Put water, dechlorinater, and salt into the buckets
2. Measure with a Hydrometer to make sure the salt is the same as the tank (1.025)
3. Wait over night till the next morning
4. Syphon out 45L / 11Gal out of the tank.
5. Slowly add the new salt water mix into the tank. I cant pour it into the sump as the space is to tight to get enough leverage to pour the bucket into.
Any help or advice on this proceedure would help me out greatly. Thanks for reading.
