My Triton results

Here are the results I got back on my 100G tank using Microbe Lift reef salt.

FWIW, the salinity is pretty high.

I don't know if it is an issue, but the tin is worth thinking about. Not sure where it is coming from.

I calculate 37.6 PPT.

As far as the salinity where is that represented and how do you calculate it?

The tin I am not sure about either...

Salinity is something that can be calculated from the numbers, but Triton does not supply the number. Unless you get a spreadsheet from Jim (above) or some other chemist, it is not a DIY procedure. A rough estimate can come from just comparing the sodium in your sample to the sodium in 35 ppt seawater.

This thread describes the detailed procedure:
