aerating mixed SW

I was just wondering what other people do?
When mixing your SW and then storing it, do you use an aeration hose on your PH? I was told it was a good idea by a trusted LFS.

No need to for aeration and Ph is fine all by itself. I store mixed water for up to 2 months with just a PH and heater.

I just use an old air pump that I don't use with an airstone. The air bubbles will keep the water oxygenated and well mixed

I have a Maxijet PH and a heater in my holding tank. I keep about 27G of water mixed and ready to use. The PH keeps it nicely 'stirred.' 8)
