I have come to an interesting dilemma(=read Newman style (you know, from Seinfeld)).
I have finally started preparing RO water for my tank to be. I have a 100L canister where the RO water drips. To make everything easier, I want to start dripping the water into the tank directly and adding salt (tropic marin) later. The thing is that I already have a deep sand bed in there. It's pretty fine sand (silt actually - 0 - 0,2mm grain size and it looks like flour). Would the salt ions get inside the sand(fast enough)? Would I need to stir (not shake) it...? I hope you can understand my concern. :D

Roman
