Doing it via top off is a great idea, as Fatman said. That way you do it slowly. I'd also shoot for half because its not likely you have 125G because of displacement, etc. Unless you measured exactly from the start. ]]> Mon, 08 Feb 2016 14:47:09 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=79042&PID=607498&title=salinity-low#607498 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=79042&PID=607497&title=salinity-low#607497 Author: Stevieswonder

Thanks !!! For response Fatman ,very good I was thinking of adding a cup at a time mixed with water and pouring it in the sump then checking again in an hour or two.    Maybe I should start higher then.]]> Mon, 08 Feb 2016 14:37:19 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=79042&PID=607497&title=salinity-low#607497 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=79042&PID=607496&title=salinity-low#607496 Author: Fatman

According to https://www.hamzasreef.com/Contents/Calculators/DirectSaltCalculator.php

3.43 lbs. I'd just put about half that in your ATO or make-up water and see what you get. I've not checked the calculations so I can't vouch for it.
