Hi everyone!

So I am upgrading my 75 to a 150... I am going to be mixing the saltwater right in the tank for the 1st time only before i add my sand etc... my question is does it matter if I add the salt and have my whole system running with t eh return pump to help stir it? Or should I just have a power head in there and not have it circulate through it.

Thanks!

You can have the whole system running. It wont hurt anything.

Just dont dump entire scoops right into your pumps. I slowly add to the display so it can dissolve/disperse a bit.
