Cuz's 605g system

[cuz]

So far in regards to changing salt brands I've been slowley changing it out over the last month. I just didn't see the value in a $100 pail of salt, maybe I'll notice something and go back but for now I kind of like the $40/pail for IO.
I've been changing 5g a day for the past 3 weeks and the last week has been 10g/day. I've seen no difference yet other than really clean water from all the changes!!
I've had to dial back my dosing due to the daily water changes and IO mixing at a higher Alk but every thing seems fine. If i figure everything right by the time I move tanks I'll have added around 450g of new IO mixed water to my current tank and I should be fine filling the new one with just IO salt.
I'm wondering if I should slowly phase my doser out temporarily just to ensure the water from both tanks is as similar as possible for the move??
I'd rather **** off 2-3 pieces from lack of dosing vs chancing ****ing everything off due to different water!!

I got a little ambition this afternoon and headed to Home depot for the lumber for the new stand.
I pieced everything together for a rough fit so it can all be taken apart in order to fit into the house.





I'm leaving the ledge on the backside (might have to brace it to support my ass!!) Hopefully i can use it to help reach stuff if needed. I plan on drilling a few holes in the middle of it for return and drain plumbing from the overflow once I know where everything lines up..the plywood against the wall will be on the bottom of the stand.




And here's my afternoons work diss-assembled ready to be moved...
