salt on LR

[kelly]

I did a partial water change in my tank because the ammonia was present. I
did mix the new water well enough I guess because now I can see salt on my
live rock. Is this ok or do I need to do something? Presently I 10lbs. live
rock, two snails, two hermit crabs.

its to little to late now as the salt should be well dissolved at this point
(your post was made 8hrs ago to my news server) but in the future you need
to mix new water at least 12 hrs IMO.

and it's never a good idea to allow salt crystals to lay on your LR. don't
even scrape salt creep back into the tank because it can bleach/kill off
anything it lays on.
