Using nickel anodes for nickel plating

-----

I am using a bright nickel plating solution that contains nickel sulfate. Should I use nickel anodes with this, I am not plating large things and my tanks are 2 gallons. I am worried nickel anodes will load the solution up with nickel to where it does not work as well. Please help. Thanks Rob

Nickel anodes it is, Rob. The nickel does not dissolve except electrolytically. Talk to anode suppliers and get the right stuff.
