it was nice meeting everyone today. Just a reminder, calibrate the refractometer with ro water and make sure it reads 0. I helped to calibrate two for 1st timers one was correct, another one was off by .001. We then tested it on my tank, I have it at 1.024. For those people using hydrometers u will have a shock to c how high the specific gravity is.

hey Ron, thanks for everything once again!
to tell you something funny, i was shocked to see how low the specific gravity was! (1.020)

Hey EZ,

Make sure to bring the salinity up slowly, over like a day or two. I think fishes tolerate rapidly decreasing salinity, but get stressed when u bring it up to quick.

I was shock! I thoug my SG should be 1.025 when my reading from refractometer is 1.030! Gotta do something!

Thanks Ron for your effort. Greatly appreciated.
