Juicyjamez Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 This post is regarding my 28g reef tank. Had it for about 2 months now my salinity was way low mixed some saltwater up and now it’s at 28! Livestock are healthy still at day 2 of High salinity. What is your advice to bringing it down and u think this will affect my livestock Quote Link to comment
seabass Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 to Nano-Reef.com. Lowering specific gravity quickly is better tolerated than raising it quickly. I'd probably replace a half gallon of tank water with RO/DI. If it needs more, do the same tomorrow. I'd shoot for 1.025 to 1.026. Stability is important. Not sure what happened, but it's important to test specific gravity prior to doing water changes. 1 Quote Link to comment
