So I live in the PNW (Port Angeles Wa) and myself and a buddy of mine have been doing offshore crabbing lately, so while out boating I was looking at the water and it’s crystal clear saltwater other than seaweed and occasional bird poop etc. So I asked on R2R if anyone used the natural water, I got some responses but not much, so I decided to set up a test tank in the garage and check this water out. Today I harvested the first 5 gallons of the 20 gal tank I plan to test in (harvested around 6ft from the surface sonar read:140ft depth to the bottom. off the very end of Ediz hook here on the straight of Juan de Fuca) I just added the water and put in a heater to bring it to Tank temperature (water runs between 52-56 degrees here) so I plan to test the water for as many things I can add some rock down the road and maybe introduce some livestock way way down the road if everything seems to check out. Any comments are welcome (NO Dolphins will be harmed in this experiment.... I don’t think anyway) Next 5 gallons of water harvest will take place tomorrow. After that I will start testing parameters.
