That depends on NUTRIENTS

Yes you're making a mistake if it reaks. Are they organic nutrients, or what are you using?

Sounds like anaerobic bacteria is growing. You need to keep it oxygenated, and use it within a few days. I don't let any organic tea brew past 48 and that's with the air stones.

Then specify.
I would just mix up what I needed at that moment, because whether you are using salts or organics, bacteria will start to form immediately! But like others said you can use things like a airstone or continuous flow to keep the mix oxygenated. I like continuous flow because it constantly adds oxygen to the feed while also continually mixing the feed from the bottom of the bucket to the top of the bucket!

I used ro use a cheep item from a fish store called a water mover. it will keep things moving, I found, an air stone, adding Oxygen just aided for bacterial growth. but as others have suggested mixing what is needed for that feeding is better. is there a reason that you are mixing larger amounts then needed?
