Reef Chemistry Question of the Day [HASHTAG]#165[/HASHTAG]
Something that has come up occasionally over the years is the salinity of skimmate.
Which of the following do you think is likely to be the best way to measure the salinity of a typical reef aquarium skimmate? FWIW, all off these work well for normal seawater.
1. Refractometer
2. Conductivity meter
3. Hydrometer
4. Drying it and measuring the weight
Good luck!
