I mixed water this morning at 7:30 am. Sould it be safe to do a water change tonight around 6pm with the water I mixed this morning. I usually wait over night or 2 days before using newly mixed water.
 
There's a thread in the chemistry section about mixing, etc. Most people wait but some don't and really don't have any problems. Throw a powerhead in there to mix it up real good. Then raise the powerhead so you're sucking a lot of air and water together. Do that for a couple of minutes and you're golden.
 
i have done it before with no bad reaction, so i'm sure you can do it but just don't do it often :p, it's better to wait until the next day so the salt gets mixed good.
