Hey guys. I’m at 1.025 in a ten gallon. I was wondering, with that volume if anyone knows about how much fresh water I would want to add to lower it to 1.024.

I would just wait till about 5 percent evaporates out ,than just add some rodi water and see where your level is at....personally i like mine at 1.025 for a reef tank... BTW when you add the new water make sure it is about the same temp as to not shock anything in the tank...hope this helps..
