No matter what I do, I cannot get all of my salt to dissolve. I am using instant ocean, and there is ALWAYS a deposit of salt on the bottom of my 5g mix buckets. The salinity is even a bit low. The temp in the bucket should be about equal to the ambient temp here in south FLA, somewhere between 80-90. I keep the bucket outdoors, but not in the sun. I have no full time powerhead in the bucket, but I shake and stir the thing a few times every day, and it has been mixing for over a week.
Any thoughts? And I used to have this problem when I did use powerheads in the bucket, so I don't think that is the real problem.
