User: whats the formuler of the mixing up ofsalt and water

Weegy: 1Make sure to obtain an appropriate brand of salt. Salts for use in aquariums should not have any nitrates or phosphates, both of which are ill-suited for tanks. Some good salt brands might include Instant Ocean (IO), IO Reef Crystals, and Coralife. [ Step2Fill the tank with a suitable amount of distilled dechlorinated water--you should be able to use a commercial dechlorinator. Do not use tap water. Step3Place a hydrometer into your water and let it float freely. Make sure that the temperature of the water matches the temperature to which the hydrometer has been calibrated--usually, around 77 degrees Fahrenheit. Step4Slowly add the salt until the hydrometer's specific gravity reaches a level of 1.015. At this point, remove and clean the hydrometer, and let the salt water sit and mix for 36 hours. Step5Return the hydrometer to the water. Continue to add salt until the specific gravity reaches the required level for your marine system: 1.019 to 1.022 for fish, 1.023 to 1.025 for reefs and 1.025 to 1.028 for corals and clams. ]
