![]() I use the same but I mix it and use it within a few hours. It's always clear when added to tank but there is some residue in the bottom. Not much though.

![]() Do more research!! Mix your salt as normal, put it in the tank and deal with the cloudiness for a short time. It states on the pale itself that it will be cloudy, as this is one of the only salt types that does not have a chemical in it to make it disolve faster! Instant ocean etc use a disolving agent to get rid of the cloudiness.
Speaking from experience and emails to the manufacturer directly. Sucks. Bit outcome is much better. |
