How long can you mix new saltwater before you shouldn't use it?
I've had some mixing for like 2-3 weeks. Just stupid lazy i guess.
Anyways thanks.

As long as there is a lid on it to avoid any contamination your all set. Aged salt water is actually more stable for your system and can keep for quite a long time if its properly packaged. I always mix mine for a week before I use it.
Just check the S.G. evaporation and all...
