i have a 20 gallon if i have 4 5 gallon buckets and mix each one and get the specific gravity between 1.020 and 1.023 in each bucket then add it to the tank will there be any problems? with the salt level changing

it will all mix in together if thats what your asking, when i set up my 2 tanks i just filled the tanks up to almost full then worked out roughly how much salt to put in and threw it all in at once waited till all dissolved and added more if needed

It should be fine, but just try to make the gravity as close as possible. I personally use a 30 g mixing bucket (brute garbage can)
