What's the best way to change over to another salt mix than the one I'm currently using? I was told to add part of the mix I'm using now, and part of the new salt in with the RO water I will be doing my weekley water changes with. Do this every week during my water change to switch over.. by adding less and less of the current salt to the water and more of the new salt. Is this correct?
 
You can switch over with new salts over time you don't have to add the other salt as long as your not doing 50 percent water changes if your doing 10 percent water changes once a week then the fish will acclimate to it.
 
yep, you can just change straight over. The only thing I would say is keep an eye on your water chemestry as different brands have different amounts of magnesium, calcium, iodine, strontium etc etc etc..... you may have to add/stop adding some of these.
