Best guestimate is 900 gallons in the front pond, 1200 in the back,
although that last figure has changed with the recently begun
remodel. Yep, pound box of salt. I just make sure to do a water
trade fairly often through the season so salt residual isn't a
problem next year.

Adding a 1 lb. box of salt to 900 gallons of water isn't much.
The rate for a .1% solution is .88 lbs per hundred gallons.

And therein lies the beauty of localized salt; lower total salinity but
plenty of concentrated salt water for the fish to swim around in if they
wish or feel the need.
