How to switch salt mix?

[Just_Pete]

I'm about to switch my salt from Instant Ocean to Tropic Marin Pro.

I do 5 gallon water changes weekly on my 40 gallon cube. My IO salinity is at 1.025 and I plan to match it with TMP. Not dosing anything right now.

Would 5 gallons put any shock to the tank or should I start off with a smaller amount for my first TMP WC?

Tank should be fine, I recently switched from brightwell to tropic Marine. I will say you will be shocked on how clean and fast it mixes!!

Thats what I've read.

How long for you until it's mixed?

A full 5 gallon bucket usually takes 2.5 hours
