Hi All,

Doing a water change today and mixed up a batch of water yesterday and notice this morning there are a bunch of white particles floating in the water. With all this humidity my salt in the bucket was rock hard and I had to break it up but figured once I put it in my mixing container with a couple of power heads it would all dissolve but I guess I was wrong :(

This is for my FOWLR tank, is it okay to use?

Just looked on their website and it looks like the moisture getting into the salt bucket is the cause but seems it's okay to use

as long as salinity is good then just put a filter sock at the end of hose so it will catch particles, if it was for a reef then I would check Calc and Alk before adding
