Red Sea coral pro salt

[Rxb09a]

I just bought Red Sea coral pro salt and I was reading the directions and I’m not seeing anywhere where it says to mix how many cups per gallon. Am I missing this somewhere or what is everyone else doing to come out at 1.026?

It's usually 1/2 cup per gallon of RO/DI water. Start there, and check your salinity, and then adjust as needed until you hit 1.026. With Fritz 1/2 cup per gallon gets me to 1.026 but I don't know if Red Sea is going to be similar or not.

Okay I was using IO salt and it was half cup per gallon. I guess that may be the industry standard. I’ll try the half cup per gallon. Thanks
