How do you mix your saltwater for your aquarium? I used to use 5 gallon buckets to heat and mix in. This works fine if you have a small aquarium or you just don't mind getting salt water all over your house. I started using an Rv pump, 2 trash cans, and with a little planing I was able to set up a salt water mixing station that was more efficient and helped me cut down on maintenance time.

been thinking of doing this, i got a 12 gallon long and im setting up a 65 gallon and its taking FOREVER LOLOL I was just looking at the same trash can so i can just fill it and the put a pump in it to fill the 5 gallon buckets. I have the 75gpd aquatic life RO. I thought that would be ok but i may need to buy a bigger one now to make more water a day. Great video man!

Thank you I appreciate you watching and I am glad you like it. The way I have mine set up really saves on time and mixing is much easier. I have mine set up to where I turn a valve and it just recurculates the water to mix the salt. If I turn the valves then it pumps it to the garden hose to fill the buckets or aquarium directly. The first time you fill your trash can I'd recommend actually measuring the gallons. I marked the inside waterline in my trashcan so I know where to fill too and I know exactly how much salt to put in to reach my 1.025. One thing I would add to mine is an automatic float shut off valve for the rodi filter. I have over flowed mine before because I forgot about it. Im pretty sure my filter is a 65 or 75 gallon per day so I'd try yours first unless you really just want to buy a new filter, I get that too.
