Bio-Sea Salt Packaging

From my understanding salt need to be packed in an air-tight bucket or bag or levels of alk and other stuff start to deplete, right?

If I want to useBio-Sea Marine Mix that comes in a bag, how do I ensure it is air-tight?

I use Marine Environment, so I'll try to give you a hand.


The bag that the BioSea comes in is actually a very good bag. Trust me when I say don't try to open it with your teeth!! (old habit of mine.) I have a Reef Crystals bucket that I use when I open a bag of salt; I simply dump the unused portion into the bucket. This is probably not the best way to do things; I would probably be better off just resealing the original bag. Once a bag is opened, I'll usually use the rest of it within 2 weeks. If you use less salt than I do, just twist the slack out of the bag (like bread) and close it with a rubber band.
