water change screwup
 
So I started mixing 10 gallons of fresh salt water,and sometime last night the temp probe came out of the container. When I got up this morning the water temp was 105 degrees. Using Instant Ocean Reef Crystals. Once The water cools down is it still safe to use or should I toss it?

Should be fine to use..

It's probably fine as long as there's no large buildup of precipitate. If there is an issue, it'd be low alkalinity and calcium.

No problemo.

I agree with bertoni. This is really bad practice and I wouldn't do it regularly because some calcium will likely precipitate. But other than that, it should be fine.

It will be fine once water cools down
