Just a guess but I'm thinking this needs to be done gradually
Will it hurt if the water is not premix and i just add the salt directly in the freshwater?I would premix my batches prior before wc's.
Cause i use the water from my garden hose

Should mix as it mess with ur chemistry (calcium)of the water if i remember right.Will it hurt if the water is not premix and i just add the salt directly in the freshwater?

Also can burn their gills.Will it hurt if the water is not premix and i just add the salt directly in the freshwater?

So i can just premix it in a bucket then pour it in the tank.The Salt will take longer to dissolve.
Thank you, ill start doing that this weekendSorry. A little late to the show. Yes should start to acclimate right away once purchasing these eels.
It takes usually several months and the eels start to get skin infections and die off of not acclimated.
Like tlindsey mentioned a slow gradual increase in the salinity. Goal should be anywhere on the brackish scale. Some have a goal of 1.010. It varies but should be fine on the lower end. The brackish dose should 3tbsp per 5g. But should check with a hydrometer.
Do i need to add calcium like saltwater?Should mix as it mess with ur chemistry (calcium)of the water if i remember right.
