Ok I posted this in the brackish area, as it does have more to do with brackish and salt water, but those areas don't get as many hits so I'll post it here too...
Okay, so there was a thread ealier in the chit chat section regarding saving money... I never really thought of anything good, but something just popped into my mind about my soon to be brackish set-up, with regards to the water, during water changes your supposed to remove a bucket of water, then add in the other bucket of saltwater +/- .001 accuracy, so my thought was, could this water be boiled to get the salt back so you don't have to constantly buy new salt?
I know that you can boilocean salt water then you have a pot of salt left, so would it work? Or does the salt lose some kind of property that makes it compatible with the water?
