So my current LFS is being a bit unreliable with my salinity and i've been interested in mixing my own salt for a while now. i currently have a 20g nano reef with a 10g sump, but i'm going to be upgrading soon to a 120ish gallon reef. I'd like to know what a good RODI unit is that won't break...
I just noticed My salinity is around 1.018 and i don't own a RODI unit yet so I have no way of raising it since it's Christmas Eve and I have no idea if any stores will be open tomorrow, I have about 3 gallons of RO water in a jug so I might be able to mix salt water should I get my hands on...
Hi all, I was wondering what you thought about the inexpensive (usually "ATO" branded) salinity refractometers as far as accuracy, do they last very long, etc.
I have a feeling at $19 shipped with a case, they're pretty popular!
Thanks!
