Cool, glad to see you are still positive after losing $80 of Mud and a bunch of salt
Once you get your new Mud in, mix saltwater in the tank for a day or two, check the temp,
ph, and
SG for correctness, THEN add the Mud once the tank is ready for life. Just remember, never add saltwater to anything unless you have mixed it for 24 hours and heated it up to the same temp at the tank and you will be OK.
Most people use trash cans or some buckets with heaters and powerheards next to the tank to keep a fresh supply of premixed and heater saltwater handy.
