HI all - last night we awoke to the sound of a lot of water only to discover that the pip had come off my return pump and was flooding the lounge room with water - it must have only just happened as we only lost about 100l but……… we live rural and I cannot get any salt until next week as we need to order it (I thought I had another bucket but I was wrong) so what can we use to mix up approx 90l of water which will be relatively safe (only 1 coral and rest is fish)

any help greatly appreciated …. I know its probably been answered before but in a rush I cannot find it

There is no salt substitute you can use to make 25G of saltwater.

Can you list your fish? Do you have a smaller tank you can transfer to until you can get more salt? Or take the sump offline, might as well deep clean it too, and put your heater in the display.
 
Sounds like you didn’t lose much.
Cant you just run the wavemakers till you get salt?
