My SPS dominant system uses a lot of core 7 which causes my salinity to rise. Every week or so I exchange some tank water with RODI to keep it in check. This just got me thinking though, does the "salinity" provided by core 7 accurately replace the salinity provided by the original salt mix or is my water chemistry in terms of salinity makeup slowly changing with core 7 absent water changes (which I haven't done many of in nearly 2 years now)?

Thank you

I haven't had any issues... confirmed by ICP test. I've been skimming wet to help balance salinity and top off. I think most 2 parts on the market now are "ionicly balanced" and shouldn't cause any issues.

I haven't had an issues either but curious what core 7 contains with regard to salinity and how it doesn't change things more technically.
