Storing Saltwater

[it's_fishy]

has anyone ever stored premixed saltwater? I had some leftover after the last water change and was wondering if it "goes bad". And/or how long will it last and how should one keep it if you can store it. For now i just put it in a gallon jug container.

it should be good for a few days inside your home..im not to sure how long its good for.i always leave any r/0 freshwater or saltwater in a 32g garbage pale(new from home depot) with a pump for circulation :yes: ..you can order a good cheap pump on this site for like $20.. a rio 600 (200gph)would do good.. ive herd bad about rio's,but ive had mine over a year and it still works fine

It should be safe to store as long as you need.. as long as there is no light getting to it.
