Been testing at home for a month and just got my water retested by the LFS's spin touch. Salinity is at 1.024 and I was wondering what kind of % impact it increasing it will have on my calcium/mag/alk.
Currently at
alk 7.8 (was due to dose .5 dkh today but didn't get a chance to before the test)
ca 463
mg 1124 (always ran around 1200 as I was only dosing two part, adding calcium to 1350 now - have already dosed 50ppm today)
Will increasing my salinity from 1.024 > 1.026 give an appreciable increase in these elements - logically I'd expect 8.3% increase which would save me quite a bit of money on magnesium supplementation. My natural salt water usually runs .024-.025 can I just throw extra NSW into my top off's in place of RO to hit/maintain 1.026
