For a year, using my Red Sea refractometer, I measured my salinity at 1.024. As I bought my water from my lfs I let it sit at this level and everything seemed to be doing okay.
I have just purchased a Hanna salinity tester (which I absolutely love) and it turns out that my salinity is actually 1.022.
Better late than never, I am now going to mix my own salt water and slowly raise my salinity to 1.026. I will do this by my weekly 10% water changes.
Will this raise in salinity affect my dkh, calcium and magnesium levels?
And if so, how will it affect them?
Thanks.
