That makes sense. What if I turn on a wave maker inside the container a few times throughout day? I've read that stirring the mix will also lead to quicker precipitation, right?

Sadly no, the best thing you can do if you are needing to store fresh saltwater is I believe to use a tightly sealed container as @Waterjockey does. Its being open to the air that allows evaporation / pH change to take place.
 

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?

  • I have used a HOB on fish only or quarantine tanks, but not on the display tank.
