Yea, stick a powerhead in a brute, fill with water, dump in salt.

It is at least possible that we have different definitions of the word "automated".

Hey, I saved you from stirring. You're welcome.

automatic salt mixing would be tough... you'd need something to turn on/off the water to your RO/DI unit, then once it's full it will also need to trigger the correct amount of salt, then you'd need an electronic salinty tester to verify it has the correct amount of salt in it.. and if not then it would need to be somehow programmed to add the correct amount of salt/water to get it correct... It would be very complicated with a lot of different containers/sizes neded and not fail safe and would require regular maintenance and testing... not worth it IMO as it could cause more problems and be more time consuming than doing it yourself.

Hey, it looks exactly like my geocities.com/mishri/reefkeeping/index.html from 20 years ago.. if it were a doge meme...it's not bad. let's try some constructive criticism...
