Hello everyone,
I am using tropic marin pro reef salt, as I like to pre-mix my salt and keep it in storage for relatively long. This usually mixes around 6.8-7 dkh at 1.025 specific gravity.
My tank is a soft coral tank only with leathers, gsp, zoanthus, no SPS or LPS corals, so I shouldn't have much taking dkh out of the water.
Still, I'd like to raise this up to 8 just to be safe. So my question is, will dkh stay stable during long duration storage when adding sodium hydrogen carbonate during mixing? Or will precipitation change it? To my knowledge, tropic marin pro reef is a very stable salt mix, so the question is specifically about precipitation in long term storage when raised with sodium hydrogen carbonate.
