I was wondering if there was any Salinity testing equipment that actively reads Salinity in real-time, I use the Hanna Salinity Checker which I really enjoy but sometimes I get the feeling that it's not as accurate as a Refractometer.
Hi all,
I decided to try ice-analysis.com as they had them on sale at my local LFS. Despite me sending the samples from Canada to Denver CO, they had my results posted in 5 days which was pretty impressive.

Hey Guys,
I’ve been cycling my tank for about 2-3 weeks now and I did my first water test without the help of my LFS today. My results were:
Salinity: 1.024
Temp: 25 Degrees Celsius
dKH: 7 dKH
pH: 8.6
Ammonia: 0 - 0.1
Nitrite: About 0.5
Nitrate: Between 10 & 20
What are your thoughts on where...

Note -...
So this is my first time testing water from this tank that I've had running at my house for approximately 4 days. The person I bought it from had it running for ~1 month or so. Unfortunately my Nitrate is really high, but the pH, Ammonia and Nitrite look O.K. to me. Was wondering what you guys...
