I pour straight into the tank. Freshwater is lighter than saltwater so it sits on top for a few moments until it gets mixed in. I wouldn't worry. A good storm drops freshwater into the ocean and coral seem to survive.Smile]]> Tue, 16 Feb 2010 10:59:57 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38700&PID=342896&title=top-off#342896 <![CDATA[top off : thanks for the help ]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38700&PID=342830&title=top-off#342830 Author: ellison.chris18

Install an ato so you don't have to top it off manually?]]> Mon, 15 Feb 2010 20:18:00 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38700&PID=342815&title=top-off#342815 <![CDATA[top off : I often pour a gallon right into...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38700&PID=342809&title=top-off#342809 Author: Adam Blundell
