I know stupid question but I'd rather ask anyway lol. Never had to use it but now I need too. Do I just dump it in there?? I can pour it in my hob but does it dissolve away after a while or do I need to take it out? Thanks all

It will dissolve on it's own. Some people pre dilute it in a bucket first but I usually just dump it in. 1 tablespoon per 5 gallons. Never had a problem that way

I just dump it in and let it dissolve in the water. The safe way will be to pre mix it with water and then dump it in. Some fish are sensitive to contact with direct salt. As water evaporates the salt will remain. You should only add salt for the amount of water you took out. The salt will disolve in the water so there is no removing it,
 
Yeah I've never used it before but my total system is around 280 gallons with the sump. My cichla has a little wound on its lip from like choking on a piece of massivore lol. Ill just dilute it and dump into the sump. I only bought a small pack treats like 107 gallons or something

I'm a dumper.
 
No need to dilute it just dump it in the sump. The water pump won't carry it up. If it does it will disolve before reaching the top.
